Acetic acid has been mixed with isoamyl alcohol to produce isoamyl acetate giving off a banana smell. Propose a reaction mechanism for this reaction.
Ibufenac, a para-disubstituted arene with the structureHO2CCH2C6H4CH2CH(CH3)2 , is a much more potent analgesic thanaspirin, but it was never sold commercially because it caused livertoxicity in some clinical trials. Devise a synthesis of ibufenac frombenzene and organic halides having fewer than five carbons.
Ibufenac, a para-disubstituted arene with the structure HO2CCH26H4CH2CH(CH3)2, is a much more potent analgesic than aspirin, but it was never sold commercially because it caused liver toxicity in some clinical trials.

Propose a series of reactions to synthesize each molecule below and show the structure of the intermediate compounds formed following each step you propose. Do not give handwriting solution.
A common illicit synthesis of methamphetamine involves an interesting variation of the Birch reduction. A solution of ephedrine in alcohol is added to liquid ammonia, followed by several pieces of lithium metal. The Birch reduction usually reduces the aromatic ring, but in this case it eliminates the hydroxy group of ephedrine to give methamphetamine. Propose a mechanism, similar to that for the Birch reduction, to explain this unusual course of the reaction.
