Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.22P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The plausible mechanism for given reaction has to be proposed.
Concept Introduction:
Ring-opening of
Acid-catalyzed ring-opening of epoxide: The epoxide ring is protonated and the nucleophile attack depends on the electronic or steric effect (nature of epoxide).
Crown ethers are cyclical chemical compounds that consist of a ring containing a number of ether groups. The resultant cations often variety salts that are soluble in nonpolar solvents, and for this reason crown ethers are helpful in phase transfer catalysis.
