Choose the set of letters corresponding to the BEST answer. -gives two moles of QRS upon hydrolysis -the most reactive towards nucleophilic acyl substitution -can be formed from the alcoholysis of TUV -has the most acidic proton

The conjugate base of diethyl malonate can serve as a nucleophile to attack a wide range of electrophiles. Identify the product that is formed when the conjugate base of diethyl malonate reacts with the following electrophile followed by acid workup when relevant: CN Modify the provided structures of diethyl malonate and the given electrophile to draw the product formed.

How is the mechanism for oxymercuration/demercuration reactions of alkenes understood?  How are the  (Markovnikov) products predicted and what reagents would you need to use to incorporate this reaction into a multistep synthesis strategy. Finally, what makes this a potentially more useful way to synthesize alcohols from alkenes than simple acid hydration?

Enamines can serve as enolate surrogates in reactions at the a-carbon. In the reaction sequence, the structures of the enamine addition product – the initial zwitterion and its neutral tautomer – are shown. Draw the structures of the two reactants forming these intermediates, and draw the structure of the final product, obtained via hydrolysis of the neutral intermediate. initial zwitterionic intermediate neutral intermediate tautomerization Reactants H,0 hydrolysis product Draw the two reactants.
