Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The ketone obtained by hydrolysis and decarboxylation of the given
Concept introduction:
The final products of acetoacetic ester synthesis are
(b)
Interpretation:
The ketone obtained by hydrolysis and decarboxylation of the given
Concept introduction:
The final products of acetoacetic ester synthesis are ketones, specially substituted derivatives of acetone. In acetoacetic ester synthesis, substituents are added to the enolate ion of acetoacetic ester. Then, hydrolysis takes place followed by decarboxylation to give alkylated derivatives of acetone.
(c)
Interpretation:
The ketone obtained by hydrolysis and decarboxylation of the given
Concept introduction:
The final products of acetoacetic ester synthesis are ketones, specially substituted derivatives of acetone. In acetoacetic ester synthesis, substituents are added to the enolate ion of acetoacetic ester. Then, hydrolysis takes place followed by decarboxylation to give alkylated derivatives of acetone.
