Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The steps of the given reaction are to be classified as Lewis acid-base association reaction, Lewis acid-base dissociation reaction, electron-pair displacement reaction, a Brønsted acid-base reaction.

Concept introduction:

Lewis acid-basedissociation reactions are those reaction in which a compound dissociates to form a Lewis acid and a Lewis base as products. Brønsted acid-base reactions are those reactions in which electron pair displacement takes place and electrophilic center is a proton. Lewis acid-base association reactions are those reactions in which a Lewis acid combines with Lewis base to form a product.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The conjugate acid-base pair formed in the Brønstedacid-base reaction is to be indicated.

Concept introduction:

Brønsted acid-base reactions are those reactions in which electron pair displacement takes place and electrophilic center is a proton. The species which donates electron pair are known as Brønsted base. On the other hand, the species which accepts electron pair from another species are termed as Brønsted acid.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Each atom of the species present in the mechanismisto be classified as a nucleophile, nucleophilic center, electrophile, electrophilic center, leaving group, Brønsted base, Brønsted acid.

Concept introduction:

The species which donates electron pair is known as Lewis base. On the other hand, the species which accepts electron pair from another species is known as Lewis acid. Lewis acid-base association reactions are those reaction in which a Lewis acid combines with Lewis base to form a product.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The curved arrow notation of each step is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The curved-arrow notation is used to show the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. The curved arrow has two barbs (head and tail) which represent the direction of electron flow.
