Calculate the theoretical yield in grams for the Williamson ether synthesis of phenacetin. (density of p-phenetidine is 1.065g/mL) Don't know if this helps but, the starting quantity of p-acetamidophenol is 1.51g
The Williamson ether synthesis between 2‑naphthol (MW 144.2 g/mol) and allyl bromide occurs in dichloromethane solution in the presence of the phase transfer catalyst, PhCH 2 ( Bu ) 3 NCl , and NaOH and produces allyl 2‑naphthyl ether (184.23 g/mol). A reaction was performed in which 0.43 g of 2‑naphthol was reacted with a slight excess of allyl bromide to make 0.46 g of allyl 2‑naphthyl ether. Calculate the theoretical yield and percent yield for this reaction. Allyl bromide...
In the Williamson Ether Synthesis of Phenacetin from Acetaminophen, sodium methoxide in methanol and 100% ethanol are added. This procedure initially states to use bromoethane, instead we used bromobutane. what is the new mechanism?
Williamson Ether Synthesis of Guaifenesin Starting Materials - 2-methoxyphenol (guaiacol): 550 uL - 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol: 500 uL - Sodium hydroxide: 1 mL of 6M Product - Guaifenesin What is the yield expected in (g) and (mmoles)?
e) Typically. Williamson ether synthesis is conducted using Na, a very strong base in the reaction in d. however, the Williamson ether synthesis was accomplished with K.CO a much weaker base Why can K.CO, be used for this Williamson ether synthesis? n What general type of reaction is occurring here? g) Predict the reagents, then propose a mechanism (Hint: don't reduce the ester) OCH,
two possible starting materials using a williamson ether synthesis method.Please explain two possible starting materials using a williamson ether synthesis method.Please explain
4) Briefly explain why the following molecule cannot be produced using Williamson ether synthesis. 4 pts Note: a complete answer will illustrate the two theoretical William ether synthetic pathways that could be used to synthesis the product (1 pt each) and explain why each pathway would not yield the desired product (1 pt each). Bonus: Provide a different synthetic pathway that produces the ether shown above. (I could do it in a single step!). (bonus 2 pts).
The ether shown can be prepared using a Williamson ether synthesis; that is, by reacting an alkoxide ion with an alkyl halide. Draw the alkoxide ion and alkyl bromide that you would combine to make the ether with the highest possible yield. You may omit the metal cation counterion that accompanies the alkoxide ion for the purposes of this question. Include all lone pairs and nonzero formal charges. 1 stattomat
Outline two methods for preparing isopropyl methyl ether by a Williamson synthesis. One method gives a much better yield of the ether than the other, explain your answer.
