Chapter 18, Problem 18.12P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The resonance structures for the carbocation formed after loss of a leaving group from phytyldiphosphate is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: The Friedel-Craft alkylation is a type of electrophilic substitution reaction. AlCl3 is used as Lewis acid which reacts with the alkyl chloride to a form a Lewis acid-base complex.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The two-step mechanism for Friedel–Crafts alkylation of 1, 4-dihydroxynaphthoic acid with carbocation to form X is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: The Friedel-Craft alkylation is a type of electrophilic substitution reaction. AlCl3 is used as Lewis acid which reacts with the alkyl chloride to a form a Lewis acid-base complex.
