Which of the following compounds is the strongest base? Why?
Explain in terms of relative stabilities. [i.e. Just quoting pKa or 'well something is a
stronger acid/base' is NOT a reason]
(a) CH3CO₂Na
(b) CF3CO₂Na
(d) CH₂FCO₂Na
5. Which acid-base reaction would not take place as written?
Explain in terms of relative stabilities. [i.e. Just quoting pKa or 'well something is
a stronger acid/base' is NOT a reason]
A.
CH3Li + CH3CH₂OH
B.
C.
HC=CH + NaOH
HC=CNa + H₂O
D. CH3OH + NaH
(c) CHF2CO2Na
E. CH3CO₂H + CH3ONa
CH4 + CH3CH2OLi
→ HC=CNa + H₂O
HC=CH + NaOH
→ CH3ONa+ H₂
→ CH3CO₂Na+ CH3OH
