1. NaOEt CO2Et 2. H30+ 3. heat Br. Br CORET + H3C V CO2H H₂C + CO2 + E H3C CO2Et The malonic ester synthesis is a carbonyl alkylation reaction. It is used to prepare carboxylic acids from primary alkyl halides, lengthening the carbon In progress by two atoms. Thus, the product can be visualized as being a "substituted acetic acid." The reaction consists of three steps: generation of the enolate anion followed by SN 2 reaction with a primary...
QUESTION REVIEW Question 6 Status: Not yet answered I Points possible: 1.00 Aspirin synthesis involves the addition of an acetyl group to salicylic acid in a condensation reaction with an alcohol. The acety group could be added with a carboxylic acid but the preferred procedure is to use the acid anhydride. Why is preferable to use an acid anhydride for ester formation with an alcohol rather than a carboxylic acid? Select one: ОО Acid anhydrides are less stable than esters...
