Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure for the expected product for each of the given compounds through an intramolecular Friedel-Craft acylation reaction that yield a cyclic ketone is to be written.

Concept introduction:

In Friedel-Crafts acylation, to yield aryl ketones, acyl halides are used.

In the intramolecular Friedel-Craft acylation, the electrophile and nucleophile present on the same molecule, resulting in the formation of a ring.

The electron releasing effect of the methoxy group attached to benzene ring makes the ring electron rich.

The ketone shown was prepared in a three-step sequence from ethyl trifluoroacetate. The first step in the sequence involved treating ethyl trifluoroacetate with ammonia to give compound A. Compound A was in turn converted to the desired ketone by way of compound B. Fill in the missing reagents in the sequence shown, and give the structures of compounds A and B.
Compound A produce compound D while undergo Friedel Crafts Alkylation. Compound D is then oxidized and produce compound E (C11H12O3) as a major product.What are the possible structural formula of compound D and E?
The following molecule can undergo keto–enol tautomerization upon addition of hydroxide. Draw the structure of the enol form and the mechanism by which it forms.
