1. DEFINITION :
CARBENE IS A MOLECULE HAVING TWO UNSHARED VALENCE
ELECTRONS AND A NEUTRAL CARBON ATOM WITH CARBENE A
VALENCE OF TWO.
CARBENES ARE NEUTRAL HIGHLY REACTIVE
MOLECULAR SPECIES .
EXAMPLES:
1.METHYLENE
2.PHENYL METHYLENE
3.DICHLORO CARBENE
4.DIPHENYL METHYLENE
5.PROPARGYLENE
CARBENES
2. HISTORY OF CARBENES
Carbenes had first been postulated by
eduard buchner in 1903 in
cyclopropanationstudies of ethyl
diazoacetate with toulene
In 1912 Hermann staudinger also converted
alkenes to cyclopropanes with diazomethane
and CH2 as an inetrmediate.
Doering in 1954 demonstrated with
dichlorocarbene synthetic utility
4. SINGLET AND TRIPLET
Carbenes are classified as singlets or triplets
depending on electrical structure.
Carbenes , divalent carbon species are well
known reactive intermediates that enable new
carbon carbon bond formation.
SINGLET: one vacant P orbital is there. SP2
hybridized. sp2 orbital full with electrons in
opposite spin
TRIPLET: sp2 hybridized
p orbital and sp2 orbital are half filled.

7. SIGNIFICANCE OF CARBENES
CARBENES ARE USUALLY UNSTABLE IN
NATURE . THEY ATTACH THEM SELVES TO
METALS TO FORM METAL CARBENE
COMPLEXES THAT SERVE AS EFFICIENT
CATALYSTS USED WIDELY IN THE
PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY.
CARBENES ARE VERY REACTIVE MOLECULES
THAT CONTAIN CARBON ATOM WITH 2
UNSHARED ELECTRONS.
THEY CONVERT QUICKLY TO MORE STABLE
MOLECULES.THEY ARE IMPORTANT BUILDING
BLOCKS FOR MOLECULES IN COMBUSTION
SYSTEMS.
8. SYNTHESIS OF CARBENES
1.CARBENES ARE FORMED BY
REACTIONS OF HALOGENATED
COMPOUNDS WITH BASES.
2.THERMAL DECOMPOSITION OF DIAZO
COMPOUNDS.
3.ELIMINATION OF CHLOROFORM ITH
BASE.
4.METAL [RHODIUM OR COPPER
CATALYSED DECOMPOSITION OF DIAZO
CARBONYL COMPOUND.
5.FROM TOSYLHYDRAZONES.
9. FORMATION OF CARBENE
CARBENES FROM DIAZO COMPOUNDS:
•When diazomethane is heated nitrogen gas is relesed resulting in the
formation of carbene.
•Carbene precursors are commonly made from diazo compounds
•catalyst such as dirhodium copper,iron ere utillized to breck don diazo
compounds and produce the essential metal carben intermediates Historicaly
•Gold catalysy have resently been created has a novel form of metal catalyst
for decompozition of diazo compounds
10. CARBENE FORMATIPON BY ALPHA –ELIMINATION
Elimination in which both the proton and leaving group are on the same atom
fallows on ELcB-elimination process
A carbanion is formed hem a strong base removes a acidic proton close toan
electrone with draing group
A carbene is formed when leavimg group from a caranaion is removed
11. Carbene reactions:
1.Carbene insertions
2.Addition reactions
3.Carbene rearrangement
1.Carbene insertion:
Insertion of carbene into carbon hydrogen bond. This organic reaction is of some .
Importance in the synthesis of new organic compounds.
12. Addition reactions:
When alkenes react with carbenes three membered rings are formed
Insertion of carbene into pi bond system is the most common way of preparing
cyclo propane
Small size of the ring creates substantial ring strain in the structure
The addition of methelyne unit CH2, to carbon carbon double bond of alkene is
syn addition
13. Named reactions..
1.REIMER TIEMANN REACTION
2.CARBYL AMINE REACTION
1.REIMER TIEMANN REACTION IS AN ORGANIC CHEMICAL REACTION
WHERE PHENOL IS CONVERTED INTO ORTHO HYROXY
BENZALDEHYDE USING CHLOROFORM; A BASE AND AN ACID
WORKUP
…THIS REACTION CAN ALSO BE DESCRIBED AS THE CHEMICAL
REACTION USED FOR THE ORTHOFORMYLATION OF PHENOLS..
