Question

Propose a synthesis of the following molecule from the given starting material. You may use any reactions we have learned in this course so far, and any reagents containing the carbon atoms you need.

The image displays a chemical reaction starting with a nitrophenol compound on the left, and resulting in an amide ester compound on the right. **Left Structure:** - The structure on the left is a benzene ring with a hydroxyl group (OH) and a nitro group (NO₂) attached to it. This compound is known as nitrophenol. **Reaction Arrows:** - The arrows indicate a chemical reaction that transforms the reactant into the product. **Right Structure:** - The structure on the right is a more complex organic molecule. - The benzene ring is preserved, now attached to an amide group (NH) and an ester group (OEt). - An acetyl group (C=O, CH₃) is attached to the nitrogen of the amide. This transformation suggests a sequence of reactions such as nitration, reduction of the nitro group to an amine, followed by acylation to form the amide, and esterification.
