The concept of organic chemistry in hydrolysis reaction refers to the reaction between water and another compound, which is decomposed into two parts + To a part of it, and hydroxyl (- OH) is added to another part, thus obtaining two or more new chemical compound Reaction process; The concept of inorganic chemistry is Weak acid radical Or weak base ions react with water to form weak acid and Hydroxyl ion (OH - )(or weak alkali and Hydrogen ion (H + ))。 It is widely used in industry organic compound The main products are alcohols and phenols. Hydrolysis reaction is Neutralization reaction or esterification The reverse reaction of. Hydrolysis of most organic compounds is difficult to proceed smoothly only with water, generally under alkaline or acidic conditions.

Hydrolysis reaction of inorganic salts
Definition: salt in solution ionization Ions and H ionized by water + And OH - Associative generation Weak electrolyte Reaction.
Inorganics are usually decomposed in water Complex decomposition In the process, water molecules are also decomposed and combined with the hydrolyzed material fragments to form new substances.
Sodium carbonate hydrolysis will produce sodium bicarbonate and sodium hydroxide (alkaline after hydrolysis)
Step 1: CO three 2- +H two O
HCO three - +OH -
Step 2: HCO three - +H two O
H two CO three +OH -
Hydrolysis of ammonium chloride will produce hydrochloric acid and ammonia (acidic after hydrolysis): NH four Cl+H two O=NH three ·H two O+HCl [1]
Hydrolysis reaction is a reaction between water and another compound, which is decomposed into two parts. The hydrogen atom in water is added to one part, and the hydroxyl is added to the other part, so that two or more new compounds can be obtained. This concept of hydrolysis reaction is applicable to the hydrolysis of halogenated hydrocarbons and esters in organic chemistry, as well as covalent halides such as SiCl four TiCl four Hydrolysis reaction. However, in inorganic chemistry, the concept of hydrolysis reaction is often expressed as: in solution, ions ionized by salt and H ionized by water + Or OH - The reaction of ion combination to form weak electrolyte or the interaction of ions generated by salt dissociation with water will shift the dissociation balance of water, thus affecting the acid-base effect (reaction) of the solution. In fact, the above two expressions are not comprehensive enough, because some covalent halides and halide interconnects cannot be called salts, but they can undergo strong hydrolysis reactions. Therefore, the hydrolysis reaction can be expressed as: in the aqueous solution, when the cation (anion) of the ionic compound or the positive (negative) atom of the covalent compound has strong enough polarization ability to break the O-H bond in the water molecule when interacting with the water molecule, the positive (negative) atom of the cation (anion) or covalent compound The atom of H+combines with OH group (H+ion), generates insoluble substances or weak electrolytes (complex ions, weak acids, weak bases, etc.), and emits H + (Discharge OH - Group). It can be seen that the cation with weak polarization ability is like the metal ion Li of the first main group + Na + K + Rb + Cs+and metal ion Ca of the second main group 2+ Sr 2+ Ba 2+ The O-H bond of water molecule cannot be broken, so it is generally said that these ions do not undergo hydrolysis reaction, but only exist in the form of hydrated ions in aqueous solution. Strong acid anions such as Cl - Br - NO three - ClO four - Plasma can not break the O-H bond of water molecules, so it is generally believed that these anions will not undergo hydrolysis reaction. From the perspective of acid base proton theory, the (hydrated) cations or anions that undergo hydrolysis are weak proton acids or weak proton bases. Therefore, in the acid base proton theory, the hydrolysis reaction is essentially the proton transfer reaction between amphoteric water molecules, proton acids and proton bases. In the acid-base electronic theory, the hydrolysis reaction is essentially an acid-base reaction between Lewis acid and Lewis base. [3]
Organic hydrolysis reaction
The molecules of organic matter are generally large, and acid or base is required as a catalyst for hydrolysis, and sometimes bioactive enzyme is also used as a catalyst.
① In acidic aqueous solution, fat will be hydrolyzed into glycerol and fatty acid; Starch will be hydrolyzed into malt dust glucose Etc; protein It can be hydrolyzed into amino acids and other substances with low molecular weight.
② In alkaline aqueous solution, fat will decompose into glycerol And solid fatty acid salts, namely soap, so this hydrolysis is also called Saponification reaction
Hydrolysis of organic matter is widely used in industry, mainly producing alcohol and phenol. Hydrolysis reaction is neutralization or esterification The reverse reaction of. Hydrolysis of most organic compounds is difficult to proceed smoothly only with water. According to the nature of the hydrolysate, the hydrolytic agent can be sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, dilute acid or concentrated acid, or sometimes Potassium hydroxide calcium hydroxide Sodium bisulfite And other aqueous solutions. This is called alkali hydrolysis and acid hydrolysis. Hydrolysis can be operated intermittently or continuously Kettle reactor The latter is more useful Tower reactor [2]

Hydrolysis of halides
Generally, sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is used as the hydrolysis agent, and the general reaction formula is as follows:
R-X+H two O→R-OH+HX
Ar-X+2H two O→Ar-OH+HX+H two In formula O, R Ar and X respectively represent alkyl Aryl group halogen Halogens on the aliphatic chain are generally active and can be hydrolyzed under mild conditions, such as Benzyl chloride system Benzyl alcohol The halogen on the aromatic ring is ortho or para positioned Nitro During activation, hydrolysis is easy, such as from P-Nitrochlorobenzene To prepare p-nitrophenol sodium. [2]
Hydrolysis of esters
Oils and fats can be hydrolyzed under acid or alkali catalysis
① Hydrolysis under acid conditions
Hydrolysis to glycerol (glycerol) and higher fatty acids under acidic conditions
② Hydrolysis under alkaline conditions
Hydrolysis to glycerol (glycerol) and higher fatty acid salt under alkaline conditions
Both hydrolyses produce glycerol.
The hydrolysis of oil under alkaline conditions is called saponification reaction.
In industry, soap is produced by saponification of oil
The alkyl sulfate obtained from the reaction of low-carbon olefins with concentrated sulfuric acid can be hydrolyzed to obtain low-carbon alcohol by adding acid. [2]

Hydrolysis of aromatic sulfonates
Generally, it is not easy to carry out. It needs to be alkali fused first, that is, molten sodium hydroxide reacts with sodium arylsulfonate at high temperature to generate sodium phenolate, which can be hydrolyzed by adding acid to generate phenol. as Sodium 2-naphthalenesulfonate It is obtained by hydrolysis after normal pressure alkali melting at 300~340 ℃ 2-Naphthol Some aromatic sulfonates also need the mixed alkali of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide as the reagent for alkali melting. When aromatic sulfonates are more active, sodium hydroxide aqueous solution can be used for alkali melting at a lower temperature. [2]
Hydrolysis of amine
Aliphatic amines and aromatic amines are generally difficult to hydrolyze. The aromatic primary amine is usually first mixed in dilute sulfuric acid Diazotization generate Diazonium salt And reheat to hydrolyze the diazonium salt. As from O-Aminoanisole system Guaiacol [2]
