Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The reaction mechanism for the conversion of the starting material to final acetal product needs to be shown using curved arrows.
Concept Introduction: In a mechanism, curved arrows are used to show the movement of electrons from one molecule to other or within a molecule. This attack always takes place from negative charge to positive thus, curved arrows are shown according to that.

- What is a balanced equation to form sodium methoxide from methanol? With a reactant that is strong enough to favor products and a proper arrow-pushing formula.arrow_forwardDraw the structure of the major organic product(s) of the reaction. H3C 1. 2 CH3MgBr, ether 2. H3O+arrow_forwardSeveral diamines are building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agro-chemicals. Show how both 1,3-propanediamine and 1,4-butanediamine can be prepared from acrylonitrile.arrow_forward
- Aldehydes and ketones react with one molecule of an alcohol to form compounds called hemiacetals, in which there is one hydroxyl group and one ether-like group. Reaction of a hemiacetal with a second molecule of alcohol gives an acetal and a molecule of water. We study this reaction in Chapter 16. Draw structural formulas for the hemiacetal and acetal formed from these reagents. The stoichiometry of each reaction is given in the problem.arrow_forward10) Synthesis: Make the following products from a suitable cyclic alkene starting material. Look at the functional group PATTERN present in the molecule, including stereochemistry. Br CH3 Br CH3arrow_forwardWhat is a protecting group in a multi synthesis reaction in organic chemistry?arrow_forward
- create a synthesis reaction for N,N-dimethylethanamide from alkene, alkane, a halogen, and ammonia. Draw and name each compound and include all conditions, reactants and products needed for the reaction to proceed.arrow_forward4. A CHEM 245 student wants to synthesize some ethylene glycol to use as antifreeze in his radiator this winter. He proposes the following reaction to his instructor, who quickly explains that this reaction won't work as proposed due to the student's choice of reagent. 1) NaH 2) H20 OH Но a) Why can't sodium hydride (NaH) be used as the nucleophile in the reaction above? b) Propose an alternate reagent that COULD be used with the ethylene oxide to successfully give the desired ethylene glycol product.arrow_forwardAnswer all three parts plz. You are starting with three aryl bromides. They undergo a typical grignard reaction with magnesium metal and anhydrous ether (diethyl ether). Dry ice is then added to it and it is then cooled. Draw and label the names of the aryl carboxylic acids that will form for each. Part a) 4-bromonitrobenzene Part b) 4-bromotoluene Part c) 2-bromotoluenearrow_forward
