Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The correct IUPAC name for the ester that is formed when butanoic acid and ethanol react has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
Esters are prepared by condensation of
Esterification reaction is the one in which the carboxylic acid is condensed with an alcohol (or phenol) in presence of strong acid catalyst to produce ester. The general reaction scheme can be given as,
For naming an ester, it can be structurally viewed in a way that contains an acyl group and an alkyl group.
Rules to obtain IUPAC name and common name for an ester:
- Alkyl part appears first in the IUPAC name and it is followed by the acyl part of ester as a separate word.
- Name of the alkyl part in the ester is just a name of R group. It can be alkyl, cycloalkyl, or aryl group.
- Acyl part present in the ester is named by considering the acid name and replacing the suffix “-ic acid” with “-ate”.
- To obtain the common name the alkyl part name is the same while the acyl part name is derived from the common name of the acid by replacing the suffix “-ic acid” with “-ate”.

Consider the following intramolecular aldol condensation. This result is fully consistent with the two rules we use to determine the likely product of intramolecular aldol condensation reactions. Rule 1: Only form 5 or 6 membered rings, rule 2: the less- hindered carbonyl group will serve as the electrophile. OH- H₂O product not formed Interestingly, if the same starting material is treated with a secondary amine such as pyrrolidine and some acid, the other product is formed preferentially. Describe the mechanism for what is happening in the presence of amine and acid. (6 points)arrow_forward
- Draw the structure of ,-diethyl--propylthiopentane. With explanationarrow_forwardA. Provide a stepwise mechanism for the formation of nerolidyl pyrophosphate fromfarnesylpyrophosphate B. Provide a stepwise mechanism for the formation of carbocation 1 from nerolidylpyrophosphate. Number the backbone carbons of nerolidyl pyrophosphate from 1 to 11 as shown, andinclude the carbon numbering in your structure of 1 C. Following from B, give an arrow-pushing mechanism to convert 1 to 2 and 2 to 3. Use thebackbone carbon numbering from 1 to indicate where carbon atoms ended up in 2 and 3 D. In addition to forming epi-cedrol, carbocation 3 gives three minor byproducts: a diastereomericalcohol and two alkenes. Draw mechanisms that could give rise to these three productsarrow_forwardPlease don't use Ai solutionarrow_forward
