Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The product formed by the treatment of given compound with either lithium aluminum hydride or sodiumboro hydride is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Sodiumborohydride is a metal reducing agent. It reduces
(b)
Interpretation:
The product formed by the treatment of given compound with either lithium aluminum hydride or sodiumboro hydride is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Sodiumboro hydride is a metal reducing agent. It reduces ketones and aldehyde into secondary alcohols and primary alcohols respectively. Lithium aluminum hydride is a strong reducing agent. Treatment of carbonyl compounds with lithium aluminum hydride followed by water yields alcohols. It reduces aldehyde into primary alcohol.
(c)
Interpretation:

Organic Chemistry
- Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring.It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+): CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l). The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be produced from 8.50 gof butanoic acid and excess ethanol? Express your answer in grams to three significant figures.arrow_forwardEthyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple.
