Chapter 8, Problem 58P

There are two dicarboxylic acids with the general formula H O 2 C C H = C H C O 2 H . One dicarboxylic acid is called maleic acid; the other is called fumaric acid. When treated with O s O 4 , followed by N a H S O 3 / H 2 O , maleic acid yields meso-tartaric acid and fumaric acid yields ( ± ) -tartaric acid. Show how this information allows one to write stereochemical formulas for maleic acid and fumaric acid.

Explain this statement: Although 2-methoxyacetic acid (CH3OCH2COOH)is a stronger acid than acetic acid (CH3COOH), p-methoxybenzoic acid(CH3OC6H4COOH) is a weaker acid than benzoic acid (C6H5COOH).

H₂O H3C OH Br The a-bromination of carbonyl compounds by Br2 in acetic acid is limited to aldehydes and ketones because acids, esters, and amides don't enolize to a sufficient extent. Carboxylic acids, however, can be a-brominated by first converting the carboxylic acid to an acid bromide by treatment with PBr3. Following enolization of the acid bromide, Br2 reacts in an a-substitution reaction. Hydrolysis of the acid bromide completes the reaction. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism. Arrow-pushing Instructions :0: H3C Br Br + :::OH2 Br H₂O H3C Br за
