Chapter 13, Problem 49ASP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The disconnection that leads to an epoxide starting material needs to be identified.

Concept Introduction: The ring opening in epoxide is basically a reaction between nucleophile and an electrophile. In this case, oxygen atom resulting in epoxide ring act as an electrophile and other group act as a nucleophile.

The conjugate base of diethyl malonate can serve as a nucleophile to attack a wide range of electrophiles. Identify the product that is formed when the conjugate base of diethyl malonate reacts with the following electrophile followed by acid workup when relevant: Modify the provided structures of diethyl malonate and the given electrophile to draw the product formed. Note: the eraser tool can be used to erase bonds, and atoms can be moved by selecting them with the selector tool and then dragging the selected atom(s) to a new position. If you make a mistake, you can use Ctrl-Z or the Undo tool. OH -CH₂ CH₂ Edit Drawing
Hydroxide acts as a nucleophile in protein degradation by hydrolysis of the peptide bond in water. Draw out an arrow pushing mechanism of the hydrolysis of a peptide bond. Identify the nucleophile and the electrophile in this reaction.
Show how acid derivatives hydrolyze to carboxylic acids under either acidic or basicconditions. Explain why some acid derivatives (amides, for example) require muchstronger conditions for hydrolysis than other derivatives.
