Hello I have a question that I am facing difficulty with. For starters, I am not even sure what type of reaction this is.
Question: Show full mechanism (with all contributing resonance structures for the reaction intermediate) of the reaction of 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene with excess of glycine ethyl ester.
If someone can draw out the reaction, or presumably start it, I can follow through. I know how to react benzonitrile with benzyloxide but I have no idea how to do it with an ester.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
