Interpretation: Mechanism for the given type of decarboxylation reaction has to be proposed and it should be compared with the mechanism of decarboxylation of
Concept introduction:
Carboxylic acids contain a carbonyl attached to a hydroxyl group as shown below,
If
Decarboxylation of
The mechanism of thermal decarboxylation involves two processes,
- (i) Redistribution of electrons in a cyclic transition state.
- (ii) Cyclic transition state possesses keto-enol tautomerism.

Concept introduction:
Carboxylic acids contain a carbonyl attached to a hydroxyl group as shown below,
If carboxylic acid is heated to a very high temperature then of carbon dioxide will be eliminated from it this reaction is known as decarboxylation. Simple carboxylic acids do not decarboxylate readily.
Decarboxylation of
Simply the mechanism of thermal decarboxylation involves two processes,
- (i) Redistribution of electrons in a cyclic transition state.
- (ii) Cyclic transition state possesses keto-enol tautomerism.
