Hi all
1) In the attachment, the synthesis of the compoun on top to Coumarin(bottom) is a form of condensation reaction? Esterification? My teacher told me its mechanism is a nucleophilic substuition, but what is the reagents and conditions for the synthesis(im curious) and what is the nucleophile? (sorry for the free hand draw)
2) I do know not how to go about determining the primary structure of a protein through the frangments after cleveage(hydrolysis). Im able to handle small fragments but once it goes up to 6 onwards, i get confused. Any general tips?
3) AlCl3 is an electrophile right, because its short of 2e-s to octet structure? Because in my test question i was marked wrong because i said AlCl3 is an electrophile.
4) The rate law of addition of bromine to propenyl ethanoate CH3CO2CH2CH=CH2 is r= k [CH3CO2CH2CH=CH2][Br2]^2
The question states propose the rate determing step, and the answer given was
CH3CO2CH2CH=CH2 + 2Br2 ---->slow intermediate
Anyone could tell me what the intermediate will be like?
This are all my doubts from my past few organic tests questions, i'm not asking for answer, but just to learn more. Appreciate any helps
