Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given reaction is to be classified as either a proton transfer reaction or a reaction of electrophile and nucleophile. The movement of electrons is to be shown by curved arrows.
Concept introduction: Lewis acid accepts an electron pair. It acts as an electrophile Lewis base donates an electron pair. It acts as nucleophile. Conjugate base is formed by the loss of a proton from an acid while conjugate acid is formed by the gain of electron by a base.

- Just need help with part D have A-Carrow_forwardA,Barrow_forwardDraw DMAP in bond line format with all lone pairs, as needed. Draw the resonance structures, and circle the resonance form that best explains why DMAP's ring nitrogen is so basic. Briefly explain why DMAP's ring nitrogen is so basic by considering the resonance form you circled and what makes an atom basic.arrow_forward
- For the following reaction, hand draw a reaction.arrow_forwardClassify each reaction as either a proton transfer reaction, or a reaction of a nucleophile with an electrophile. Use curved arrows to show how the electron pairs move.arrow_forwardIndicate the strongest acid for each pair of molecules: choose A or barrow_forward
- Organic Chemistry II: How do we know which direct the reaction? Why Methoxy Functional Group direct the reaction instead of fluorine? Is it something to do with electronegativity ? Or is it something to do with withdrawing group?? How do we know if a gourp is more withdrawing ??????arrow_forwardRank the following in order of most acidic to least acidic.arrow_forward
