Question

[Review Topics [References) NaOH, H2O a. Draw the structure of the tetrahedral intermediate INITIALLY FORMED in the reaction shown. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • Do not include counter-ions, e.g., Na', I', in your answer. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.

Answer 1

Answer: Tetrahedral intermediate Il O NAOH GO aOH' TOH GOH ! So (Structure-1) Tetrahedral intermediate NOOH OH2H2O OH + th Here in this reaction of Succinic anhydr NOOH - H20 gives succinic acid as product and the reaction goes through tetrahedral intermediate Shown in the structure-I The carbon atom , which attrat attacked by the nucleophile become sp3 and show tetrahedral geometry after reached by the ne nucleophile. The '*' Lebelled carbon atom is sp3 OH e) Tetranedral Intermediate NH3 Tetrahedral Intermediate ( + minor major Anhydride react with excess amonia CNHg) to form amide. The process will go through tetrahedal Intermediate as shown above (IT).

Tetrahedral intermediate sp?can ben II) at H28 111 Tetrahedral intermediate T-HT ال OH OH Toh DOO Succinic anhydride neacts with H₂O and gives succinic acid. The reaction goes through tet intermediate shown above (11I). Spa Carbon 0 - OH2) Tetrahedral intermediate
