Chapter 15.7, Problem 15.17P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given the each set of compounds whether it is a hemiacetal (or) neither should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

A hemiacetal or a hemiketal: addition of alcohol to an aldehyde or ketone which produce hemi acetal.

Fundamentals of General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry (8th Edition), Chapter 15.7, Problem 15.17P , additional homework tip  1

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given the each set of compounds whether it is a acetal, ketal (or) neither should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Acetals: Generally Acetals are used to protect the aldehyde (carbonyl group).

In this reaction acetaldehyde is protected as acetal by using methanol.

Ketal: A functional group of two alkyl group and two alkoxy groups are bonded to central carbon atom, the produced by the acid-catalysed alcoholysis (or) a hemiacetal. In other words addition of alcohol to the ketone or hemiacetal which produce ketal.

Cyclic hemiacetals: Intramolecular hydroxyl group reacts with the carbonyl group which forms cyclic hemiacetals.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given the each set of compounds whether it is a hemiacetal, hemiketal (or) neither should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Ketal: A functional group bearing two alkyl group and two alkoxy groups are bonded to central carbon atom, it produced in the acid-catalysed alcoholysis (or) a hemiacetal.

Hemiketals: A compound with both an alcohol (-OH) groups and an ether (-OR) groups are bonded to the carbon atom that was at one time the ketone carbonyl carbon.
