First image: Why can't the molecule C be formed in those conditions
Second image: Synthesis for lactone C
its not an exam
First image: I have to show the mecanism for the reaction on the left, where the alcohol A is added fast in one portion
Second image: I have to show the mecanism of the reaction at the bottom. Also I have to show by mecanism why the reaction wouldn't work if the alcohol was primary
First image: I have to explain why the molecule C is never formed in those conditions.
Second image: I have to propose a synthesis for the lactone A
