Chapter 23, Problem 55PS
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The name and structural formula for the products obtained from the reaction between CH3COOCH2CH2CH2CH3 and NaOH has to be given

Concept introduction:

  • Ester: One OR' group is attached to the carbonyl carbon atom of the compound. It is represented as RCOOR'. The hydrogen atom of COOH is replaced by an alkyl group.
  • Saponification: Ester hydrolysis taking place in presence of base such as NaOH or KOH is known as saponification. The products obtained after hydrolysis are a salt of carboxylic acid and the alcohol.

Carboxylic acid salt: It is an ionic compound having a carboxylate acid anion and a metal cation. It is formed when a carboxylic acid and a strong base reacts giving water.

Carboxylic acid salts are written as name of cation in prefix and base name with “-oate” suffix.

Alcohol: It is an organic compound where it contains at least one OH group. It is represented as ROH.

The IUPAC name for the alcohol is written by replcing the ‘e’ of alkanes from “-ol”.
