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.
