Concept Introduction:
Acid Catalysed addition of water: When water is added to alkyne in the presence of an acid, the product formed will be an enol. Enol contains a double bond and a
If a carbonyl group is bonded to two alkyl groups, it is called as a ketone. The enol formed in the acid catalysed addition of water will be easily converted into a ketone.

- What is the major advantage of base-catalyzed hydrolysis of esters over acid-catalyzed hydrolysis?arrow_forwardHydration of aldehydes and ketones can be catalyzed by acid or base. Bases catalyze hydration by: protonating the carbonyl oxygen making the carbonyl group more electrophilic employing hydroxide ion, which is a better nucleophile than water making the carbonyl group less electrophilic shifting the equilibrium position of the reaction to favor productsarrow_forwardWhat ketones are prepared by the following reactions?arrow_forward
- Which aldehyde or ketone is made from the reaction? -O TSOH H₂O OH afhe مکن LOH yü OH OH (cat)arrow_forwardQ: What ester results in the following reflux? pentanoic acid CH₂CH₂OH OH R' R-OH Q: What alcohol and acid must we use to make the following ester? O O H+ OH H+ benzyl isobutanoate H₂Oarrow_forwardIn which condition can carboxylic acids undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions?arrow_forward
