However, two major features make carboxylic acids different from aldehydes and ketones. First, the HO proton is made much more acidic by the neighbor￾ing CPO function. Second, the HO may behave as a leaving group under the right conditions. You will dis￾cover the importance of this ability when you study nucleophilic additions to the carboxy group.
