In each case give reagents and conditions of the reactions and the structures of the products. a) CH2=CH2 -> CH2 COOH b) ethanol -> 2hydroxypropanoic acidarrow_forward
- What is the product formed when 1-ethynylcyclohexane is reacted using mercury (II) acid catalyzed hydration?arrow_forwardNitromethane is reacted with ethyl prop-2-enoate with EtO-Na+, EtOH 3 equivalents to give the product X(C16). X then reacts with H2/Raney Ni to give the product Y(C14), which in turn reacts with Na to give Z (C12). Indicate which products X, Y and Z are.arrow_forward1. What is the term used to refer to the intermediate product formed between reaction 1 and 2? a Aldo b Keto c Enol d Carboxyl 2.
