Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The alcohol and the acid chloride that combines to make the given ester are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An alcohol and an acid chloride mix together and form an ester with removal of hydrogen chloride. To neutralize the hydrogen chloride (side product), pyridine is used as a catalyst.

- I’m having hard time finding the functional groups can you please help?arrow_forwardBenzylpenicillin shown in Figure 34 was the first antibiotic to be manufactured on large scale. How many ester groups can be formed when this compound reacts with methanol in the presence of strong acid?arrow_forwardBased on the structures of these three molecules (3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one, 4-methylpentan-2-one, hexan-2-one), which molecule do you think will have the highest boiling point? The lowest? Will they be different or the same? Explain your logic.arrow_forward
- Did I name the following alcohol correctly?arrow_forwardCan someone help me name this structure? The name I came up with was 1-methylpropyl 2-propenoate. However, I wondered if the group to the right could also be a sec-butyl so that the name would be sec-butyl 2-propenoate. Also when naming a carbonyl ester could I start at the CH3 instead of the CH attached to the O, so it would be a butyl?arrow_forwardHow would you distinguish between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohol in the laboratory?arrow_forward
- What is the functional group of propanoic acid? How do we know if it's soluble in water or insluble in water using the flowchart that is attached. which test should be performed using the flowchart. Is propanoic acid a ketone, aldehyde, ester or alcohol and how did you know?what would be the most efficient series of solubility and functional group tests that would identify the functional group? Also what could be the sources of error in this experiment? What could occur that would give false positives, false negatives, or incorrect interpretations?arrow_forwardUsing the alcohol CH3CH2OH, show three different starting compounds may be used to synthesize the ester:arrow_forwardComplete each of the following by supplying the missing product indicated by the question mark:arrow_forward
- Please match the reactions discussed for Carboxylic Acids and Esters with the correct product or products.arrow_forwardName the ester in the picture in two waysarrow_forwardPhenols are aromatic rings with an alcohol functional group attached directly to the ring. These compounds have unique acidity and solubility for alcohol groups. Predict the solubility of this phenol in water.arrow_forward
