Question
Chapter 17.2, Problem 5P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The observation that p-nitrobenzyl alcohol is more acidic than benzyl alcohol but p-methoxybenzyl alcohol is less acidic is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Alcohols are acidic because the alkoxide ion formed due to loss of H+ is stabilized by solvation.
To explain:
The observation that p-nitrobenzyl alcohol is more acidic than benzyl alcohol but p-methoxybenzyl alcohol is less acidic.
