Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Using the given compounds and any other necessary organic and inorganic reagents, the preparation of propyne by writing appropriate series of equation is to be shown.

Concept Introduction:

>

Alkynes can be prepared by alkylation of acetylene.

>

Double dehydrohalogenation of either vicinal or geminaldihalides also produces alkynes.

>

Vicinal dihalides are prepared by addition of halogens to alkenes.

>

Alkenes in turn can be prepared from alcohols by acid catalyzed dehydration.

>

Alkenes can also be prepared by elimination reactions of alkyl halides.

What is true for esters? (You can select more than one answers)   options:   A)  The properties of esters resemble with the properties of ethers.   B)  These have fruity smell and are used as to impart characteristic flavors   C)  These are derivatives of carboxylic acids   D)  These are produced by the reaction of alcohol and carboxylic acid in presence of acid catalyst
1. Esters can be formed by the condensation of a carboxylic acid with the hydroxyl group of an alcohol or phenol. a) Use structures to show the condensation of acetic acid (IUPAC: ethanoic acid) with the hydroxyl of cyclohexanol. b) Explain why 'condensation' is an appropriate name for this reaction. c) You'll synthesize the ester in aspirin by condensing the phenol group of salicylic acid not with acetic acid, but with acetic anhydride. Explain why the experiment calls for the use of an anhydride, rather than an acid.
2. Draw the molecular structure for the following organic compounds. a) benzoic anhydride b) butanoic methanoic anhydride c) acetic anhydride d) pentanoic propanoic anhydride
