Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The enone product expected from the aldol condensation of cyclopentanone is to be given.
Concept introduction:
To give:
The enone product expected from the aldol condensation of cyclopentanone.
b)
Interpretation:
The enone product expected from the aldol condensation of acetophenone is to be given.
Concept introduction:
Aldehydes and ketones with α-hydrogen undergo a base catalyzed carbonyl condensation reaction in aldol condensation. In this reaction two molecules of the reactant combine by forming a bond between α-carbon of one molecule and the carbonyl carbon of the second molecule. The product obtained, a β-hydroxyaldehyde or ketone upon heating eliminate a molecule of water to yield the enones, α,β-unsaturated aldehydes or ketones.
To give:
The enone product expected from the aldol condensation of acetophenone.
c)
Interpretation:
The enone product expected from the aldol condensation of 2-methylbutanal is to be given.

- For the single step reaction: A + B → 2C + 25 kJ If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8 kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition state. In the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change the graph. Label any new line "catalyst" and label any new activation energy.arrow_forwardHow many grams of C are combined with 3.75 ✕ 1023 atoms of H in the compound C5H12?arrow_forwarde. f.
