(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of the cyclic anhydride formed by the given dicarboxylic acid when heated is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The term anhydride means “without water”. The anhydride can be formed of carboxylic acids either by using dehydrating agents or heating the carboxylic acid. The formation of anhydrides of dicarboxylic acids resulting in the formation of five or six-membered ring structures is readily formed on heating.

(a) Draw the neutral, positively charged, and negatively charged forms of hypoglycin A. (b) Which form predominates at pH = 1, 6, and 11? (c) What is the structure of hypoclycin A at its isoelectric point?arrow_forward
- When the nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compounds 1 and 2 are treated with HCl, only 1 forms the hydrochloride salt, whereas compound 2 is unreactive. Provide an explanation for this observed reactivity.arrow_forwardPropose a feasible synthesis for 2-iodo-4-methylphenolfrom2-amino-4-methylphenol. Draw the reaction scheme and briefly describe the reaction.arrow_forwardCompound A is first reacted with methylamine in the presence of acid and then treated with NaBH3CN. Using the spectroscopic data given, what is the structure of the product after step 1?arrow_forward
- If 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_forwardExplain this result: Acetic acid (CH3COOH), labeled at its OH oxygen with the uncommon 18O isotope (shown in red), was treated with aqueousbase, and then the solution was acidified. Two products having the 18Olabel at different locations were formed.arrow_forwardAccount for the rapid rate of methanolysis of ClCH2OCH2CH3 even though the substrate is a primary halide. Hint: The reaction of the substrate with ethanol proceeds by SN1 mechanism. Draw the Lewisstructures.arrow_forward
- We are currently working with diastereomeric products of acid-base reactions in my organic chemistry class and while I understand the basics of the creation of selectively soluble salt products, drawing the reactions has always been difficult. Our prelab asks us to "draw the expected diasteromeric products from the reaction of racemic phenylsuccinic acid with excess (s)-methylbenzylamine and label the chiral centers" I would really appreciate some help with this!arrow_forward(a) State and illustrate the following :(i) Wolff-Kishner reduction (ii) Aldol condensation(b) An organic compound (A) which has characteristic odour, on treatment with NaOH forms two compounds (B) and (C). Compound (B) has the molecular formula C7H8O which on oxidation with CrO3 gives back compound (A). Compound (C) is the sodium salt of the acid. Compound (C) when heated with soda lime yields an aromatic hydrocarbon (D). Deduce the structures of (A), (B), (C) and (D). Write chemical equations for all reactions taking place.arrow_forwardExplain why a much better yield of primary amine is obtained from the reaction of an alkyl halide with azide ion (-N3), followed by catalytic hydrogenation. (Hint: An alkyl azide is not nucleophilic.)arrow_forward
