Question
Chapter 22, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The mechanism for the following reaction has to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
- Catalyst: Substance which helps in increasing the rate of a particular reaction without getting consumed in the reaction.
- Intramolecular catalysis: A catalysis where catalyst is a part of the molecule that undergoes the reaction promotes the reaction in a species.
- Intramolecular nucleophilic catalysis: A catalysis where catalyst is a part of the molecule that undergoes the reaction promotes the reaction in a species by acting as a nucleophile.
