Chapter 18, Problem 18.63E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The main difference between a fragrant ester and a wax is to be stated. The reason as to why some esters are fragrant and waxes are not
Concept introduction:
Waxes are the simple lipids. They are the esters of fatty acids. The alcohol part of waxes is derivative of long chain alcohols. Waxes are present as protective coatings on feathers, fur, skin, fruits and leaves.

For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new CC bond, and check
the appropriate box.
Next, for each reaction to which you answered "Yes" to in the table, draw this product in the drawing area below.
Note for advanced students: for this problem, don't worry if you think this product will continue to react under the current conditions
- just focus on the first stable product you expect to form in solution.

Predicting
As the lead product manager at OrganometALEKS Industries, you are trying to decide if the following reaction will make a molecule
with a new C - C bond as its major product:
H₂N
O
H
1.
?
2. H3O+
If this reaction will work, draw the major organic product or products you would expect in the drawing area below. If there's more
than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and dash bonds if necessary, for
example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry.
0
If the major products of this reaction won't have a new CC bond, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank.
