Chapter 22, Problem 22.3P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Using the given experimental results, the resonance description of the relative stability of acid chlorides as compared to amides is to be explained.

Concept introduction: Resonance is used to depict the delocalization of electrons in a compound. As pKa increases, the basicity of anion also increases and as basicity of anion increases, the compound gets more stabilized by resonance.

4-Methylphenol is more acidic than ethanol (pKa 10.36 vs 16.0) , even though both contain an OH group and a methyl group. Draw the structures of the anions formed from loss of the alcoholic protons from both compounds. Use resonance to explain the difference in their respective acidities.
The normal pH range for blood plasma is 7.35–7.45. Under these conditions, would you expect the carboxyl group of lactic acid (pKa 3.08) to exist primarily as a carboxyl group or as a carboxylic anion? Explain.
Sodium triacetoxyborohydride, NaBH(OAc)3, is a mild reducing agent that reduces aldehydesmuch more quickly than ketones. It can be used to reduce aldehydes in the presence of ketones,such as in the following reaction:CH3 C CH2O OC H CH3 C CH2OCH2OHNaBH(OAc)3CH3COOH(a) Draw a complete Lewis structure for sodium triacetoxyborohydride.(b) Propose a mechanism for the reduction of an aldehyde by sodium triacetoxyborohydride
