(a)
Interpretation:
The mechanism of the given reaction should be proposed.
Concept introduction:
In the presence of acid catalyst, this reaction takes place through partial
Epoxides are reactive, methoxide ion attacks epoxides in a less sterically hindered position which forms the alkoxide ion, and then it gets proton from alcohol which form the product.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of all products that formed in the given reaction should be drawn.
Concept introduction:
In the presence of acid catalyst, this reaction takes place through partial
Epoxides are reactive, methoxide ion attacks epoxides in a less sterically hindered position which forms the alkoxide ion, and then it gets proton from alcohol which form the product.
(c)
Interpretation:
The reason should be explained for the formation of six member ring compound in the given reaction.
Concept introduction:
In the presence of acid catalyst, this reaction takes place through partial
Epoxides are reactive, methoxide ion attacks epoxides in a less sterically hindered position which forms the alkoxide ion, and then it gets proton from alcohol which form the product.
