- What reagents would you use to convert methyl propanoate to the following compounds? a. isopropyl propanoate b. sodium propanoate c. N-ethylpropanamide d. propanoic acidarrow_forwardWhich could explain the stronger acidity of phenols compared to alcohols. Why? a.pi-electron delocalization b.steric effect c.hydrogen bonding d.hyperconjugationarrow_forwardConsider the structure of pent-2-ene, if it undergoes ozonolysis, which of the following final product is formed? a.Ethanal and Propanal b.Ethanal and Propanone c.CO2 and Propanal d.Ethanal and CO2arrow_forward
- Account for the fact that treating propenoic acid (acrylic acid) with HCl gives only 3-chloropropanoic acid.arrow_forwardIn the chemical synthesis of DNA and RNA, hydroxyl groups are normally converted to triphenylmethyl (trityl) ethers to protect the hydroxyl group from reaction with other reagents. Triphenylmethyl ethers are stable to aqueous base but are rapidly cleaved in aqueous acid. (a) Why are triphenylmethyl ethers so readily hydrolyzed by aqueous acid? (b) How might the structure of the triphenylmethyl group be modified to increase or decrease its acid sensitivity?arrow_forwardSynthetize 3-phenyl-2-propenoic acid from benzaldehyde using whatever organic/inorganic reagents are needed. 3-phenyl-2-propenoic = 3-phenylacrylic acidarrow_forward
- What is the major organic product obtained from the following reaction? A. aldehyde B. alcohol C. anhydride D. carboxylic acidarrow_forwardHow imines and enamines are converted back to carbonyl compounds by hydrolysis with mild acid ?arrow_forwardPhosgene (COCl2) was used as a poison gas in World War I. What product would be formed from the reaction of phosgene with each of the followingreagents?a. one equivalent of methanol b. excess methanol c. excess propylamine d. excess waterarrow_forward
- Reactions of carbonyl compounds with hydride ion donors. a. Draw reaction of an aldehyde with sodium borohydride forms a primary alcohol. b. Draw reaction of a ketone with sodium borohydride forms a secondary alcohol.arrow_forwardWhen trichloroacetaldehyde is dissolved in water, almost all of it is converted to the hydrate. Chloral hydrate, the product of the reaction, is a sedative that can be lethal. A cocktail laced with it is known—in detective novels,at least—as a “Mickey Finn.” Explain why an aqueous solution of trichloroacetaldehyde is almost all hydrate.arrow_forwardAcetals are formed from the reaction of two alcohols with a carbonyl under acidic conditions. Acetal formation is faster with 1,2-ethanediol than with two methanol molecules. Choose the factor that explains the difference in reaction rates. A) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a lower AH (enthalpy) of reaction. B) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a higher AH (enthalpy) of reaction. C) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a more favorable entropy of reaction.arrow_forward
