Concept Introduction:
Acid Catalysed addition of water: When water is added to alkyne in the presence of an acid, the product formed will be an enol. Enol contains a double bond and a
If a carbonyl group is bonded to two alkyl groups, it is called as a ketone. The enol formed in the acid catalysed addition of water will be easily converted into a ketone.

- Predict the products formed when cyclohexanone reacts with the following reagents.ethylene glycol and p-toluenesulfonic acidarrow_forwardIn which condition can carboxylic acids undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions?arrow_forwardWhat is the major advantage of base-catalyzed hydrolysis of esters over acid-catalyzed hydrolysis?arrow_forward
- Hydration of aldehydes and ketones can be catalyzed by acid or base. Bases catalyze hydration by: protonating the carbonyl oxygen making the carbonyl group more electrophilic employing hydroxide ion, which is a better nucleophile than water making the carbonyl group less electrophilic shifting the equilibrium position of the reaction to favor productsarrow_forwardPrepare the following compounds starting from benzaldehyde and the appropriate ketone. Provide reactions for preparing the ketones starting from aromatic hydrocarbon compounds.arrow_forwardPlease complete the reaction.arrow_forward
- Write chemical reaction of the epoxide preparation by reacting cis-2-pentene with a peroxycarboxylic acid. peroxycarboxylic acidarrow_forwardThe substance provided can be prepared by a nucleophilic addition reaction between an aldehydeor ketone and nucleophile. Identify the reactants from which it was prepared. If the substance is an acetal, identify the carbonyl compound and the alcohol; if it is an imine or enamine, identify the carbonyl compound and the amine.arrow_forwardPlease give the reactions of the following of its esterification reaction: 1. benzoic acid 2. acetic acid + benzyl alcoholarrow_forward
- Which of these is the most viable route for the preparation or synthesis of a carboxylic acid? O Alpha-carbon substitution of ketones O Oxidation of aldehydes O Nucleophilic acyl substitution of amides O Elimination of alcohols O Nucleophilic addition of ketonesarrow_forwardAn acetal is hydrolyzed in acidic solution to an aldehyde or ketone plus two molecules of an alcohol. draw structural formula of the aldehyde (or ketone) produced when the following acetal undergoes hydrolysis in acidic solutionarrow_forwardReaction with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine; Write whether the following aldehydes and ketones are positive or negative with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine.
