Example Question #41 : Specific Reactions And Named Reactions
What is the product of the based induced chemical reaction given?
The hydrogen bonded to the alpha carbon on carbonyl compounds is weakly acidic and when reacted with a strong base can deprotonate forming an enolate ion which has two resonance structures as shown below:
Example Question #11 : Other Reactions
What is the product of the base induced chemical reaction given?
The hydrogen bonded to the alpha carbon on carbonyl compounds is weakly acidic and when reacted with a strong base can deprotonate forming and enolate ion which has two resonance structures as shown below:
Example Question #11 : Other Reactions
What is the product of the reaction given?
In the reaction below, a ketone is protonated by a strong acid. This triggers the deprotonation of the weakly acidic hydrogen bonded to the alpha carbon by a chloride ion and formation of an alkene functional group.
Example Question #671 : Organic Chemistry
What is the product of the reaction given?
In the reaction below, a ketone is protonated by a strong acid. This triggers the deprotonation of the weakly acidic hydrogen bonded to the alpha carbon by a bromide ion and formation of an alkene functional group.
Example Question #681 : Organic Chemistry
What is the starting organic compound that was reacted with hydrochloric acid to yield the given product?
Example Question #682 : Organic Chemistry
What is the starting organic compound that was reacted with hydrobromic acid to yield the given product?
Example Question #683 : Organic Chemistry
What is the product of this reaction?
The reaction below is called and electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction and occurs for all aromatic compounds such as benzene. 
Example Question #684 : Organic Chemistry
What is the product of the chemical reaction given?
Claisen condensation is a reaction between two molecules containing an ester functional group. Similar to ketones and aldehydes, esters are weakly acidic because the alpha hydrogen to the carbonyl group can be deprotonated in the presence of a base. The ion that is formed nucleophilicly bonds to a second ester molecule. As seen below, an ethoxide molecule expels. Additon of an acid in the final step gives the final product.
Example Question #22 : Other Reactions
What is the product of the chemical reaction given?
Claisen condensation is a reaction between two molecules containing an ester functional group. Similar to ketones and aldehydes, esters are weakly acidic because the alpha hydrogen to the carbonyl group can be deprotonated in the presence of a base. The ion that is formed nucleophilicly bonds to a second ester molecule. As seen below, an ethoxide molecule expels. Addition of an acid in the final step gives the final product.
