Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The hemiacetal carbon in the given compound should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Hemiacetal carbon is a carbon that is bonded to alkoxy and alcohol groups. Hemiacetal forms when an
(b)
Interpretation:
The hydroxyl aldehyde that will form the given hemiacetal in a cyclization reaction should be determined.
Concept introduction:
When an aldehyde/
(c)
Interpretation:
The product formed should be determined if the given molecule (A) is reacted with H2SO4and CH3OH.
Concept introduction:
The given molecule is a cyclic hemiacetal. Therefore, when it reacts with an alcohol in the presence of acid, an acetal is formed.

The following absorbance data were obtained for a 0.00035 M solution of HX in 0.1 M NaOH and 0.1 M HCI. Measurements were made at wavelengths of 450 nm and 620 nm using a 1.0 cm glass cuvette. 450 620 A(460 nm) A(630 nm) 0.1 M NaOH 0.1 M HCI 0.065 0.435 0.895 0.150 In the 0.1M NaOH solution, the indicator will be almost 100% in the X- form, while in 0.1M HCI, the indicator will be nearly 100% protonated (HX). Calculate the acid dissociation constant for the indicator if a pH=5 buffer solution containing a very small amount of indicator exhibits an absorbance of 0.567 at 450 nm and 0.395 at 620 nm (measured in a 1 cm glass cuvette).arrow_forward
