Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Using necessary organic or inorganic reagents, the synthesis of given compounds has to be indicated.
Concept introduction:
Anti-Markovnikov’s rule: Unsymmetrical
(b)
Using necessary organic or inorganic reagents, the synthesis of given compounds has to be indicated.
Concept introduction:
Anti-Markovnikov’s rule: Unsymmetrical alkene reacts with hydrogen halide, halide ions goes to the less substitution position of carbon-carbon double bond which provides alkyl halides.
(c)
Interpretation:
Using necessary organic or inorganic reagents, the synthesis of given compounds has to be indicated.
Concept introduction:
Anti-Markovnikov’s rule: Unsymmetrical alkene reacts with hydrogen halide, halide ions goes to the less substitution position of carbon-carbon double bond which provides alkyl halides.
Dehydration reaction:
Removal of water molecule from the reaction when the alcohol is treated with strong acid like sulfuric acid and gives alkene.
The stability of carbocation is given below,
Tertiary carbocation is more stable than the secondary and primary.
(d)
Interpretation:
Using necessary organic or inorganic reagents, the synthesis of given compounds has to be indicated.
Concept introduction:
Alkenes undergoes bromination reaction using bromine which yields the dibromo compound, bromination takes place in the double bond of the alkenes.
Heck reaction:
The Heck reaction is a cross-coupling reaction of an alkyl halide with an alkene to make a substituted alkenes using palladium as a catalyst and a base.
Hydrogenation:
Alkenes undergoes hydrogenation using Pd/C and hydrogen will reduce alkene to

- Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring. It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+H+): CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l) Part A Given 7.30 gg of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100%% yield? Express your answer in grams to three significant figures. Part B A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.95 gg of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield? Express your answer as a percent to three significant figures. Part C The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0%% yield. How many grams would be produced from 7.30 gg of…arrow_forwardEthyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple.
