S.10. Describe the product formed as a result of the reaction between cyclohexanone and 3-butene-2-one by also writing down the mechanism of the reaction.
The following compounds are major products of an elimination reaction with an alkyl halide. Determine the structure of the alkyl halide and write the overall reaction mechanism.
Acetic anhydride reacts with water in the following manner: CH3C(O)-O-C(O)CH3 + H2O = 2CH3CO2 If this reaction is carried out in an inert solvent with low concentrations of both acetic anhydride and water, it follows the rate law rate = k [CH3C(O)-O-C(O)CH3] [H2O] with a rate constant of 0.0035 s-1. However, if low concentrations of acetic anhydride are placed in pure water, it follows the rate law rate = K [CH3C(O)-O-C(O)CH3] where K = 0.1944 s-1. Explain why this is happening.
