Question
Chapter 25, Problem 27P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A mechanism is to be proposed for the given transformation which was carried out as a part of a multistep synthesis of digitoxigenin.
Concept Introduction:
Hydroxyl group is not a good leaving group.
In the presence of an acid, the hydroxyl group gets protonated and is converted to a good leaving group.
A carbocation is formed when the leaving group departs. Resonance of the positive charge stabilizes the carbocation.
Addition of water to the carbocation results in further reaction and deprotonation.
