Describe how 3-methyl-1-phenyl-3-pentanol can be prepared from benzene. You can use any inorganic reagents and solvents, and any organic reagents provided they contain no more than two carbons.
Acetals are formed from the reaction of two alcohols with a carbonyl under acidic
conditions. Acetal formation is faster with 1,2-ethanediol than with two methanol
molecules.
Choose the factor that explains the difference in reaction rates.
A) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a
lower AH (enthalpy) of reaction.
B) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a
higher AH (enthalpy) of reaction.
C) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a
more favorable entropy of reaction.
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)
a) Given 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100% yield?
b) A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.25 g of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield?
c) The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be produced from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol?
