Chapter 23.SE, Problem 27MP
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 23.SE, Problem 27MP , additional homework tip  1

Interpretation:

The product formed in the addition reaction of butanal along with the mechanism of its formation is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Aldehydes and ketones that have α- hydrogen atom undergo aldol condensation to yield a β- hydroxyl aldehyde or ketone as the product. The reaction occurs in three steps i) Abstraction of α- hydrogen by a base to yield an enolate anion ii) Attack of the anion on the carbonyl carbon of the another molecule iii) Protonation of the alkoxide intermediate.

To identify:

The product formed in the addition reaction of butanal along with the mechanism of its formation.

Interpretation Introduction

c)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 23.SE, Problem 27MP , additional homework tip  3

Interpretation:

The product formed in the addition reaction given along with the mechanism of its formation is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The reaction given is a mixed aldol reaction. Aldehydes and ketones that have α- hydrogen atom undergo aldol condensation to yield a β- hydroxyl aldehyde or ketone as the product. The reaction occurs in three steps i) Abstraction of α- hydrogen by a base to yield an enolate anion ii) Attack of the anion on the carbonyl carbon of another molecule iii) Protonation of the alkoxide intermediate.

To identify:

The product formed in the addition reaction given along with the mechanism of its formation.

Interpretation Introduction

d)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 23.SE, Problem 27MP , additional homework tip  4

Interpretation:

The product formed in the addition reaction given along with the mechanism of its formation is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

In intramolecular aldol reactions dicarbonyl compounds such as diketones react with a base to yield a cyclic keto alcohol as the products. The reaction occurs in three steps i) Abstraction of α- hydrogen by a base to yield an enolate anion ii) Attack of the anion on the carbonyl carbon of the another molecule iii) Protonation of the alkoxide intermediate.

To identify:

The product formed in the addition reaction given along with the mechanism of its formation.
