Why carboxylic acids do not give the characteristic reactions of carbonyl group?

Answer»

Solution :Due to the PRESENCE of lone pairs of electrons on the OXYGEN atom of the OH group, the carboxylic acids may be regarded as a RESONANCE hybride of STRUCTURES (I and II):

Similarly, a carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones may be regarded as a resonance HYBRID of structures (III and IV):

Due to contribution of structure (IV), the carbonyl carbon in aldehydes and ketones is electrolphilic. however, due to constribution of structure (II), the electrophilic character of carboxyl carbon is reduced. in other words, carbonyl carbon of carboxyl group is less electrophilic than carbonyl carbon in aldehydes and ketones and hence nucleophilic adition reactions (such as formation of oximes, hydrazones, phenylhydrazones, 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones and semicarbazones) of aldehydes and ketones do to take place with carboxylic acids.
