Question
Chapter 22.SE, Problem 41AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The observation that 1-phenyl-2-propenone when treated with a strong base such as LDA does not yield an anion, though it contains a H atom on the carbon atom next to carbonyl group is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Hydrogen atom on a carbon adjacent to carbonyl group is acidic as the carbanion is stabilized by electron delocalization over the carbonyl group.
To explain:
The observation that 1-phenyl-2-propenone when treated with a strong base such as LDA does not yield an anion, though it contains a H atom on the carbon atom next to carbonyl group.

Acetals are formed from the reaction of two alcohols with a carbonyl under acidic
conditions. Acetal formation is faster with 1,2-ethanediol than with two methanol
molecules.
Choose the factor that explains the difference in reaction rates.

lower AH (enthalpy) of reaction.
B) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a
higher AH (enthalpy) of reaction.
C) The reaction with 1,2-ethanediol has a
more favorable entropy of reaction.
