Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: A stepwise mechanism for the formation of salsolinol in the given reaction is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: A nucleophilic addition reaction takes place rapidly when carbonyl carbon is more electrophilic. An acid catalyzed reaction makes carbonyl carbon more electrophilic towards the nucleophilic attack.Both

- Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory agent because it inhibits the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins by the transfer of its acetyl group (CH3CO –) to an OH group at the active site of an enzyme (Section 19.6). This reaction, called transesterification, results in the conversion of one ester to another by a nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction.
