Draw the mechanism of the first step where acetanilide reacts
with chlorosulfonic acid. The electrophile in this reaction will be
SO2Cl+. The positive charge will reside on
the sulfur.
a) Draw the mechanism for nitration of methyl benzoate. Include
formation of the electrophile. The mechanism should explain why the
meta product is obtained.
b) Why is the nitration of aromatic rings a useful reaction?
1) Draw a mechanism for the reaction of the
preparation of dibromosuccinic acid and predict the stereoisomer
formed based on the stereochemistry of the starting material.
a) how did you determine experimentally the stereoisomer formed?
Explain
Draw in detail the reaction mechanism for the acid
(H2SO4)-catalyzed esterification reaction between salicylic acid
and acetic anhydride to form aspirin. Please include an explanation
of the steps of the reaction mechanism.
Nitration of an aromatic ring involves an electrophilic
substitution reaction. Draw the structure of the electrophile that
attacks the aromatic ring and the intermediate formed after
attachment of the electrophile to the ring. Be sure to show formal
charges.
1.Draw the mechanism for converting a fat into a fatty acid.
2. Why does soap become ineffective in hard water?
3. There are many different types of fats. What are two
features that differentiate fats.
4. Predict how the % satuated fat will affect the soap's
texture.
BIOCHEMISTRY

The step in which the reaction product inhibits
PFK
The step that involves isomerization and an enzyme with
Fe-S clusters
A reaction that produces substrate level

A reaction that involves the production of a reduced
flavin coenzyme
A reaction that is...
Draw the dominant frontier orbital interaction for the first
step of the hydrochlorination of ethene. (Hint: the HOMO of ethene
interacting with the LUMO of HCl). Clearly show the optimum
alignment and overlap of these two orbitals.
