Interpretation:
The products when succinic anhydride reacts with the given compounds are to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Carboxylic anhydrides are acidic anhydrides where the water molecules in carboxylic acids are removed. These anhydrides have the same boiling point when compared to esters and acyl chlorides of the same molecular weight.
Succinic anhydride, as one of the carboxylic anhydrides, produces various compounds when it reacts with different types of organic and inorganic compounds.
When succinic anhydride reacts with an excess of ammonia, an ammonium based carboxylic compound is formed.
When succinic anhydride reacts with water, it gets hydrated and forms its acid.
When succinic anhydride reacts with propyl alcohol, it produces a compound of
Succinic anhydride reacts with benzene and aluminium chloride to produce an acid.
When succinic anhydride reacts with an excess of ethylamine, it forms a stabilized compound of
Succinic anhydride with an alcoholic compound in the presence of pyridine gives an ester and a carboxylic acid.

- Why do you wash the dichloromethane solution of your reductive amination product with sodium bicarbonate, rather than dilute aqueous HCl? a) Sodium bicarbonate is a good method of removing aldehydes from organic solvent.b) The amine product will be protonated by acid and remain in the aqueous layer as a salt.c) Sodium bicarbonate transfers the amine starting material into the aqueous layer.d) Sodium bicarbonate reacts with leftover NaBH(OAc)3 and removes it from the mixture.arrow_forwardWhat reactions and reagents can be used to make phenol from benzene if electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions are excluded and benzene is the only source of carbon?arrow_forwardWhat would a possible synthetic route for the following reaction be?arrow_forward
