Question
Chapter 23, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The reasonable structure of the compound that results by the reaction of phenol with
Concept introduction:
Phenols contain hydroxyl
Phenol is acidic in nature and in the presence of a strong base such as sodium hydroxide, the formation of phenoxide ion occurs after the abstraction of proton by hydroxide ion. The phenoxide ion acts as a nucleophile.
