Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The location of the labeled oxygen (O18) in the acid-catalyzed ester hydrolysis reaction is to be identified with detailed mechanism.

Concept introduction:

The synthesis of ester using carboxylic acid is a reversible process, where ester can be hydrolyzed to again form carboxylic acid. Here, alcohol is used with carboxylic acid to form ester, which is known as acid-catalyzed esterification, whereas excess water is used on ester to again form carboxylic acid, which is known as acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of ester.

(a) How will you obtain the following :(i) Benzaldehyde from Phenol             (ii) Benzoic acid from Aniline(b) Give reasons :(i) Aldehydes are more reactive than ketones towards nucleophilic reagents.(ii) Electrophilic substitution in benzoic acid takes place at meta position.(iii) Carboxylic acids do not give the characteristic reactions of carbonyl group.
(iii) Rank the carbonyl compounds given below in terms of their relative reactivity with sodium borohydride. RT R CH3 CI (iv) Suggest two factors which combine to make the aldehyde react with sodium borohydride at a different rate from the ketone. (v) Based on electronegativity one might assume that the ester and acid chloride possess similar reactivity towards nucleophiles. Suggest why this turns out not to be the case (your answer should mention resonance and inductive effects).
During a recent synthesis of hispidospermidin, a fungal isolate and an inhibitor of phospholipase C, the investigators employed employed a novel Friedel-Crafts acylation on a nonaromatic system (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1998, 120, 4039-4040). The following acid chloride was treated with a Lewis acid, affording a mixture of two products, 1 and 2. Propose a plausible mechanism for the formation of compounds 1 and 2. CI AICI 进一步农 COCI 2 Part 1 Incorrect. Which of the four mechanistic steps is happening? Add curved arrow(s) to draw the first step of the mechanism. Modify the given drawing of the products as needed to show the intermediate that is formed in this step.
