Draw and Explain the reaction mechanism for the Williamson Ether reaction. Cresol is the nucleophilic component of the ether synthesis reaction and chloroacetic acid is the electrophilic component. Due to cresol being weak, a strong nucleophile has to be made before the reaction can begin. A base of KOH is added with cresol so that nucleophile can be strong before it is mixed with chloroacetic acid.
The anticoagulant Warfarin can be synthesized by a conjugate addition (Michael addition) reaction as shown below:
a) Propose a mechanism for the reaction starting from the enolate shown below. You can assume water is present for any proton transfers needed.b) We saw that the keto tautomer is normally preferred over the enol tautomer, however, the enol tautomer is present in the final product (Warfarin) and that is the more stable tautomer in this case. Why do you think the enol tautomer is more stable? Hint: consider the molecule as a whole.
