Further reaction of a hemiacetal with alcohol then yields an acetal, a compound that has two ether-like oxygens bonded to the same carbon. Show the structure of the acetal that you would obtain by reaction of acetophenone with 2-propanol. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms.
