Chapter 13, Problem 80CP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The mechanism for the given reaction needs to be provided.

Concept Introduction: In the acid-catalyzed ring-opening of an epoxide with water, first proton transfer takes place and then nucleophilic attack takes place via an SN2 mechanism. In the end, proton transfer step takes place that removes the charge formed after the attack of the neutral nucleophile.

Complete the following esterification reactions by drawing the line formulas of the carboxylic acid and alcohol required to form the ester shown. catalyst catalyst catalyst apricot fragrance
Show the saponification products of the following ester: You don't need to draw in the Na+ cation. catalyst, A catalyst, A catalyst, A
What would happen if the carboxylic acid and alcohol groups were on the same molecule? In essence, the molecule reacts with itself. Draw the structure of the products formed in this manner using the reactants below. If two functional groups interact with one another on the same molecule, this is called an “intramolecular" (within one) rather than "intermolecular" (between two or more) attack.
