Concept Introduction:
>Enol refers to an intermediate structure that consists of an
Enols are seen as an alkene with a powerful electron donating substituent. They are even more reactive as compared to a simple alkene due to the presence of the hydroxyl group.
>The formation of enol occurs when a molecule contains protons on its alpha carbon atom. The extraction of protons takes place from the alpha carbon atom of the molecule to form an enol.

- Devise a synthesis of each compound using CH3CH3 as the only sourceof carbon atoms. You may use any other required organic or inorganicreagents.arrow_forwardDevise a synthesis of benzocaine, ethyl p-aminobenzoate (H2NC6H4CO2CH2CH3), from benzene, organic alcohols, and any needed organic or inorganic reagents. Benzocaine is the active ingredient in the topical anesthetic Orajel.arrow_forwardDevise a synthesis of each compound from CH3CH2OH as the only organic starting material; that is, every carbon in the product must come from a molecule of ethanol. You may use any other needed inorganic reagents.arrow_forward
- Devise a synthesis of each compound from benzene. You may also useany organic compounds having four or fewer carbons and any requiredinorganic reagents.arrow_forwardβ-Vetivone is isolated from vetiver, a perennial grass that yields a variety of compounds used in traditional eastern medicine, pest control, and fragrance. In one synthesis, ketone A is converted to β-vetivone by a two-step process:Michael reaction, followed by intramolecular aldol reaction. (a) What Michael acceptor is needed for the conjugate addition? (See Problem 23.61 for another method to form the bicyclic ring system of β-vetivone.) (b) Draw a stepwise mechanism for the aldol reaction, which forms the six-membered ring.arrow_forwardDevise a synthesis of compound A from the given starting materials. You may use any other inorganic reagents or organic alcohols. A was used to prepare aliskiren, a drug used to treat hypertension (see also Problem 5.7).arrow_forward
