Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.51AP
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The structures of all of the products formed when ethyl triflate and ethyl mesylate react with potassium iodide in acetone is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Substitution reaction is one of the types of reaction in which one species is replaced by the other species. Substitution reactions can be done either by
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why triflate anion is a much weaker base than the mesylate anion is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The strength of an acid or a base is dependent upon the value of dissociation constant of an acid or a base. Factors such as stability of the ion, presence of an electronegative group, alters the strength of the given acid or a base.
Interpretation Introduction
(c)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why relative reactivity’s of ethyl triflate anion and ethyl mesylate are inversely correlated with the relative basicity’s is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The strength of an acid or a base is dependent upon the value of dissociation constant of an acid or a base. Factors such as stability of the ion, presence of an electronegative group, alters the strength of the given acid or a base.
