Question
Chapter 17, Problem 50P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Factors that might account for the formation of products are to be explained.
Concept introduction:
In nucleophilic addition elimination reaction, the nucleophile attacks the sterically less crowded carbonyl center. It also depends on the stability of the leaving group. The formation of product will be ultimately dictated by the dominant factor.

Provide an explanation (in detail) on how base catalysts speed up nucleophilic reactions of carbonyl compounds.
Carbonyl compounds can be protonated on the carbonyl oxygen. Protonation of the carbonyl oxygen gives a species whose positive charge is delocalized by resonance. Explain why acetic acid (ethanoic acid) is more readily protonated than acetone (propanone).
Explain how the class I carbonyl compound reacts?
What will be the product when ethylamine and propyl amine reacts with acetyl chloride?
Why only one amide obtained after the reaction of acetyl chloride with a mixture of ethylamine and trimethylamine?
Excess amine is required in the reaction of acetyl chloride with amine whereas excess alcohol is not required in the reaction of acetyl chloride and alcohol. Why?
List the following ester in order of decreasing reactivities towards hydrolysis with reason:
Methyl benzoate, p-nitro methyl benzoate and p-methoxy methyl benzoate
