(b) The product which contains labelled oxygen atom
Concept introduction:
The hydrolysis reaction of an ester can be catalyzed in presence of a base that is hydroxide ion. The rate of reaction increase due to the presence of hydroxide ion which can act as better nucleophile than water molecule. Thus substitution of alkoxide group takes place and carboxylic acid formation occur. The general reaction of base hydrolysis of en ester is written as,

- 12 Why is ethanal a stronger acid than ethane? CH3-C-H ethanal CH3-CH3 ethane A. The conjugate base of ethanal (enolate ion) is stabilized by resonance; thus, the compulsion of ethanal to lose a H* (forming the enolate) is increased. Ethane's conjugate base is not stabilized. B. The inductive electron withdrawing effect of the C=O in ethanal increases its proclivity to release a H* C. Steric factors make ethanal the stronger acid. D. You can write resonance structures for ethanal (the carbon acid), indicating enhanced stability. Because the carbon acid is more stable, its acid strength is greater.arrow_forwarda) Ketoacid Z below can be synthesized from ethyl acetoacetate W via an acetoacetic ester synthesis.

Br₂, PBrg 2. H₂O H₂C OH H3C OH Br The a-bromination of carbonyl compounds by Br₂ in acetic acid is limited to aldehydes and ketones because acids, esters, and amides don't enolize to a sufficient extent. Carboxylic acids, however, can be a-brominated by first converting the carboxylic acid to an acid bromide by treatment with PBr3. Following enolization of the acid bromide, Br₂ reacts in an α- substitution reaction. Hydrolysis of the acid bromide completes the reaction. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism. Arrow-pushing Instructions H3C :0: :0::Br: Br Br H3C CO-P H Br Brarrow_forward
