- Propose a curved arrow mechanism to account for the formation of compound C.arrow_forwardThe ionones are fragrant substances present in the scent of iris and are used in perfume. A mixture of α- and β-ionone can be prepared by treatment of pseudoionone with sulfuric acid.Write a stepwise mechanism for this reaction.arrow_forwardThe analgesic acetaminophen is synthesized by treating 4-aminophenol with one equivalent of acetic anhydride. Complete the equation for the formation of acetaminophen. a. Acetaminophen: b. Additional Product pls add the name for both, thanks!arrow_forward
- Quinapril (trade name Accupril) is used to treat high blood pressure andcongestive heart failure. One step in the synthesis of quinapril involvesreaction of the racemic alkyl bromide A with a single enantiomer of theamino ester B. Given the structure of quinapril, which one of these two products isneeded to synthesize the drug?arrow_forwardHow many moles of monofunctional A must be added to a mixture of one mole of B2 and one mole of A3 to prevent gelation at maximum conversion?arrow_forwardRank the compunds in the order of increasing acidity.a. Phenol, p-methylphenol, p-(trifluoromethyl)phenolb. Benzyl alcohol, phenol, p-hydroxybenzoic acid Illustrate and explain your answerarrow_forward
- Express the reaction of α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds with Organometallic Reagents ?arrow_forwardExplain the reaction for the formation of acetal and hemiacetal. Explain why N,N-disubstituted amide is less acidic than ester. Why only methyl ketone do undergoes haloform reaction. LDA is the base of choice for carbonyl compound to completely convert into enolate. Why?arrow_forwardIf you oxidatively degraded lignin and were able to separate the following aldehyde inreasonable yield and purity, which other compound(s) could you derive from it, usingredox chemistry?arrow_forward
