Chapter 11, Problem 40P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The equation for the hydrolysis of propanoyl chloride has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Hydrolysis of Acyl chloride:

Hydrolysis is the reaction of acyl chloride with water molecule. In this reaction, the acyl chloride gets converted into carboxylic acid and HCl which is shown in the following general scheme:

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The equation for the transesterification of ethyl butanoate with propanol has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Transesterification reaction:

  • It an example for an alcoholysis reaction.
  • The alcoholysis reaction is just like hydrolysis in which one component gets converted into two components using a molecule of alcohol like using a molecule of water in hydrolysis.
  • The alcoholysis of ester is known as transesterification reaction. In this reaction one ester component reacts with a molecule of alcohol and will be converted into two components such as another new ester and an alcohol which has been shown in the following general scheme:

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The equation for the aminolysis of ethyl pentanoate has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

  • The aminolysis reaction is just like hydrolysis in which one component gets converted into two components using a molecule of amine like using a molecule of water in hydrolysis.
  • In the aminolysis of ester, one ester component reacts with a molecule of amine and will be converted into two components such as an amide and an alcohol which has been shown in the following general scheme:
