Chapter 22.5, Problem 7P
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Interpretation:

The most acidic hydrogens present in CH3CH2CHO are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

The hydrogens present on carbons adjacent to electron withdrawing groups like carbonyl, nitrile etc. and electron attracting electronegative atoms like N, O and F are acidic and can be readily removed as protons.

Carboxyl proton is highly acidic as the carboxylate anion can be stabilized by resonance.

To identify:

The most acidic hydrogens present in CH3CH2CHO.

Interpretation Introduction

b)

Interpretation:

To identify:

The most acidic hydrogens present in (CH3)3CCOCH3.

Interpretation Introduction

c)

Interpretation:

The most acidic hydrogens present in CH3COOH are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

The hydrogens present on carbons adjacent to electron withdrawing groups like carbonyl, nitrile etc. and electron attracting electronegative atoms like N, O and F are acidic and can be readily removed as protons.
