Chapter 16, Problem 16.31P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structural formula for the product of hydrolysis of given acetal in aqueous HCl has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

The structural formula of a compound shows how the atoms are arranged in a molecule and, in particular, shows which functional groups are present.

Hydrocarbon compound which contain a hydroxyl group and an alkoxy group is known as Hemiacetals. Hemiacetal can be prepared by the addition of alcohol to an aldehyde or ketone in the presence of an acid catalyst. Hemiacetals react with a second alcohol molecule to produce an acetal, which contains a carbon with two alkoxy groups –OR.

Draw structural formulas for the products of hydrolysis of the following acetal  in aqueous HCl.
Draw the structure(s) of the major organic product(s) of the following reaction. Draw a structural formula for the enol form of the carbonyl compound below.
Hydration of aldehydes and ketones can be catalyzed by acid or base. Bases catalyze hydration by: protonating the carbonyl oxygen making the carbonyl group more electrophilic employing hydroxide ion, which is a better nucleophile than water making the carbonyl group less electrophilic shifting the equilibrium position of the reaction to favor products
