Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the given reaction is a faulty procedure is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
In Claisen condensation reaction two esters or one ester and a carbonyl compound react together to form
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the given reaction is a faulty procedure is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Aryl halides undergo substitution reactions only under drastic conditions. They generally are of two types, addition-elimination and elimination reactions. The elimination addition reaction involves a benzyne intermediate. Whereas, in addition, an elimination reaction involves Meisenheimer complex formation.
(c)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the given reaction is a faulty procedure is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An ester is formed by the reaction of carboxylic with alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst. This reaction is known as Fischer Esterification. Alcohol is formed by hydrolysis of the
