Chapter 19, Problem 37DSP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structure of compound X in the given reactionis to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Cyclic esters are called lactones and are often prepared by the intra-molecular cyclization of hydroxy substituted
Electrophilic addition to the double bond of unsaturated carboxylic acids gives lactone.
The phenylselenolactonization, the electrophilic reagent used is benzeneselenylchloride.
Anti addition takes place in this cyclization.
A selenoxide is produced by the oxidation of the

- A problem often encountered in the oxidation of primary alcohols to acids is that esters are sometimes produced as by-products. For example, oxidation of ethanol yields acetic acid and ethyl acetate: Propose a mechanism to account for the formation of ethyl acetate. Take into account the reversible reaction between aldehydes and alcohols:arrow_forwardIt is typically very difficult to do a substitution reaction on an aromatic ring when the leaving group is flanked by two other bulky substituents. Moreover, in Section 22.3, we found that nucleophilic aromatic substitution requires strongly electron-withdrawing groups on the benzene ring. However, Pd-catalyzed coupling allows entry into such products. As examples, write the products of the following reactions and state which coupling reaction is being utilized.arrow_forwardConcentrated phosphoric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid are common choices for dehydrating alcohols. Concentrated hydrochloric acid is not.
