- (SYN) Show how to carry out this transformation using any reagents necessaryarrow_forwardOne way to synthesize diethyl ether is to heat ethanol in the presence of a strong acid, as shown here. Draw a complete, detailed mechanism for this reaction.arrow_forwardThe crossed aldol reaction shown here can be carried out using a weak base such as pyridine. (a) Draw the complete, detailed mechanism for this reaction. (b) Explain why a relatively weak base can be used. EtO OEt H EtO OEt H. Diethyl malonatearrow_forward
- (SYN) Show how to synthesize the following molecule from any compounds containing two carbons. Draw the complete, detailed mechanism for the reaction.arrow_forward(SYN) For each of these compounds, draw an alkyl (a) (b) halide that can be used to produce it in an E1 reaction. Then, draw the E1 mechanism that would take place when the alkyl halide is treated with water.arrow_forwardPlease draw arrow-pushing reaction mechanism and identify number of electrons involved here. This is an electrolytic reactionarrow_forward
