Chapter 26, Problem 26.35P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A stepwise mechanism for the given reaction is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: The dihalocarbenes are synthesized by CHX3 and base. Another method to synthesize this is the decomposition of sodium trichloroacetate. The overall reaction involves cleavage of the CC bond followed by elimination of Cl.

Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring.It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+): CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l). The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be produced from 8.50 gof butanoic acid and excess ethanol? Express your answer in grams to three significant figures.
