Question
Chapter 7, Problem 49P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
- The compound loses a proton more readily from two given compounds has to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Effect of delocalized electrons on
Due to Inductive effect, an anion is stabilized by a nearby electronegative atom. In the same way, electron delocalization also effective on stabilization of anion.
Rule: The strength of an acid depends on the stability of its conjugate base.

The acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of an ester converts an
ester into a carboxylic acid. Although there are two O
atoms that can be protonated, the first step in the
mechanism is believed to be protonation of the oxygen
in the C=0 group. Based on charge stability, why is it
favorable to protonate that oxygen? Hint: Draw out the
products of each protonation.
