- What is(are) the major product(s) of the tollowing reaction? HCI H;C OH H,C H3C CIarrow_forwardIn each of the following reactions, two possible organic products can be formed. Draw both organic products in each case and then circle the one formed in greatest quantity in each case. HC (a) 1) NaH, 2) acid (b) CH,CH,OH (c) CH,CH,OH NH2 (d) Oarrow_forwardComplete each acid-base reaction and predict whether the position of equilibrium lies toward the left or toward the right.arrow_forward
- Complete the reactions.arrow_forwardThe acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of an ester converts an ester into a carboxylic acid. Although there are two O atoms that can be protonated, the first step in the mechanism is believed to be protonation of the oxygen in the C=0 group. Based on charge stability, why is it favorable to protonate that oxygen? Hint: Draw out the products of each protonation. + Hо HO, НО Carboxylic acid Ester Alcoholarrow_forwardThe Brønsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases is: Acids are proton donors, bases are proton acceptors Acids are nucleophiles and bases are electrophiles Acids are proton acceptors, bases are proton donors Carboxy groups are acids and amine groups are bases Carboxy groups are electrophiles and amine groups are nucelophilesarrow_forward
