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.

We will derive the forms of the molecular partition functions for atoms and molecules shortly in class, but the partition function that describes the translational and rotational motion of a homonuclear diatomic molecule is given by Itrans (V,T) = = 2πmkBT h² V grot (T) 4π²IKBT h² Where h is Planck's constant and I is molecular moment of inertia. The overall partition function is qmolec Qtrans qrot. Find the energy, enthalpy, entropy, and Helmholtz free energy for the translational and rotational modes of 1 mole of oxygen molecules and 1 mole of iodine molecules at 50 K and at 300 K and with a volume of 1 m³.
