(a)
Interpretation: A stepwise sequence that converts given
Concept introduction: The replacement or substitution of one
(b)
Interpretation: A stepwise sequence that converts given alkyl halide to carboxylic acid is to be stated by the use to suitable method.
Concept introduction: The replacement or substitution of one functional group with another different functional group in any chemical reaction is termed as substitution reaction. The electron rich chemical species that contains negative charge or lone pair of electrons are known as nucleophile. In nucleophilc acyl substitution reaction, nucleophile takes the position of leaving group.

- Complete each acid-base reaction and predict whether the position of equilibrium lies toward the left or toward the right. (a) CH3CCH+CH3CH2ONa+CH3CH3OH (b) CH3CCCH2CH2OH+Na+NH2NH3(l)arrow_forwardHow did Emil Bayer manage to make the bark of the willow tree that contained the active ingredient and precursor to aspirin LESS acidic via organic chemistry reaction. Be specific, show by chemical reaction and circle all functional groups (parts of the molecule) in the reactants that were altered in the products (circle these too).arrow_forwardAccount for the fact that one carboxyl group is a considerably stronger acid than the other carboxyl group.arrow_forward
- 3. You are given a mixture of aspirin, phenol, and naphthalene that you need to separate. i) Draw the structures of each, and identify if they are acidic, basic, or neutral compounds. For each compound draw their reaction with the appropriate acidic or basic conditions that will change their solubility and allow them to be separated. ii) What modifications would you have to make to the experimental protocol in order to separate these three compounds? Provide specifics.arrow_forwardSelect the stronger base from each pair of compounds.arrow_forwardWhy is it important that we are very careful in how much acid is added to neutralize the reaction? (Only pick one answer) If the solution becomes very acid it can be harmful to the skin Too much acid will increase vanillyl alcohols water solubility and inhibit crystal formation Too much acid will decrease vanillyl alcohols water solubility and inhibit crystal formation Excess acid will deprotonate the vanillyl alcohol and inhibit crystal formationarrow_forward
- 4) Write the reaction between cyclohexanecarboxylic acid and thionyl chloride showing all three products (two gaseous and one liquid). Take the liquid product and treat it with 2 moles of dimethylamine in benzene as the solvent. You get two products. What are they? Draw their formulae and write their names.arrow_forwardWhat is a major difference between acid and base catalyzed hydration of a carbonyl? Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a A base deprotonates water, and an acid protonates the carbonyl in the first step of the mechanism. b A base deprotonates water, and an acid protonates the alkoxide in the second step of the mechanism. с A base deprotonates the carbonyl, and an acid protonates water in the first step of the mechanism. d A base deprotonates the carbonyl, and an acid protonates water in the second step of the mechanism.arrow_forwardDraw the organic product of the Bronsted acid-base reaction. Include all lone pairs and charges as appropriate. Ignore any counterions. HCI C:O Qarrow_forward
- As we shall see in Chapter 19, hydrogens on a carbon adjacent to a carbonyl group are far more acidic than those not adjacent to a carbonyl group. The anion derived from acetone, for example, is more stable than is the anion derived from ethane. Account for the greater stability of the anion from acetone.arrow_forwardSuppose you have a mixture of these three compounds. Devise a chemical procedure based on their relative acidity or basicity to separate and isolate each in pure form.arrow_forwardExplain why pentane-2,4-dione forms two alkylation products (A and B) when the number ofequivalents of base is increased from one to two.arrow_forward
