Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The compounds required for the condensation to synthesise the given compound are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
In base-catalysed aldol condensation, nucleophilic addition of an enolate ion takes place on a carbonyl group. In first step, an alpha proton is removed to produce enolate ion. It adds to the carbonyl group. In the next step, protonation of alkoxide gives the aldol product.
(b)
Interpretation:
The compounds required for the condensation to synthesise the given compound are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Michael addition is a conjugate addition or 1,4-addition of a resonance stablised carbanion to a conjugated double bond. The conjugate double bond of
(c)
Interpretation:
The compounds required for the condensation to synthesis the given compound are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Michael addition is a conjugate addition or 1,4-addition of a resonance stablised carbanion to conjugated double bond. The conjugate double bond of

- I'm having trouble with converting lewis diagrams into VSEPR diagrams. I currently have this example of C2BrCl3 which I want to turn into a lewis structure, but I'm not sure what steps I need to do in order to do so. I have the table written down, however, there's two central atoms so what would I do? There seems to be 4 electron domains on the carbon atom and no lone pairs so it would seem like this shape would be tetrahedral. Here's what I have now. Thanks!arrow_forwardWe discussed the solid phase resin using in peptide synthesis. Provide a mechanism, for its formation. DRAW THE MECHANISM.arrow_forwardPlease help. Every time I've asked an expert in the past, it's been wrong :(arrow_forward
