Question 12

In a nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction, what is the key mechanistic step?

Accepted Answer

addition to the carbonyl by a nucleophile is followed by loss of the leaving group

Question 13

Acetyl chloride undergoes nucleophilic acyl substitution faster than methyl acetate because:

Accepted Answer

chloride ion is a better leaving group than methoxide ion

Question 14

Which of the following compounds will form acetic acid when hydrolyzed with acid and heat?

Accepted Answer

all of these

Question 15

Which of the following is the most reactive toward addition of a Grignard reagent?

Accepted Answer

I (aldehyde)

What kind of reactions do aldehydes and ketones typically undergo?

Accepted Answer

nucleophilic addition

Question 18

Why do aldehydes undergo nucleophilic addition reactions, whereas esters undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions?

Accepted Answer

Once the nucleophile adds to an aldehyde, neither H$$^-$$ nor R$$^-$$ can be eliminated because they are strongly basic.
