Question
Chapter 15, Problem 62P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To prove that a tetrahedral intermediate is formed in the given reaction.
Concept introduction:
The nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction in esters is an
For the formation of the tetrahedral intermediate, the nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction takes place on the carbonyl carbon in the first step of the reaction.
For the collapse of the tetrahedral intermediate, the group attached to the substituent attached to the acyl group leaves leading to the formation of carbonyl compound and a weaker base.

The following reaction involves two sequential Heck reactions. Draw structural formu-
las for each organopalladium intermediate formed in the sequence and show how the
final product is formed. Note from the molecular formula given under each structural
formula that this conversion corresponds to a loss of H and I from the starting material.
Acetonitrile, CH,CN, is the solvent.

epoxide ring opening, the
epoxide is first protonated and can then be attacked by
weak nucleophiles.

Weak nucleophiles such as water and alcohols can react
with the protonated epoxide.
One of the main differences between base-catalyzed and
acid-catalyzed epoxide ring openings is the regiochemical
product expected. In an acid-catalyzed reaction, if one of
the epoxide carbons is tertiary and the other primary, the
nucleophile will attack at the more substituted carbon. If the
epoxide is monosubstituted, the nucleophile will attack
preferentially at the primary carbon vs. the
secondary carbon.

When n-butyl bromide is treated with sodium iodide (Nal) in ethanol (EtOH), the concentration of iodide quickly decreases, but then
slowly returns to its original concentration. Provide an explanation for these observations, and identify the final product of the
reaction.
