Step by step solution

01

a. About the given molecular formula

The given molecular formula bears one nitrogen, one oxygen, three carbons, and five hydrogens. The NMR spectrum of this compound has three major peaks, and IR also has some major peaks. This compound has two elements of unsaturation.

02

About the NMR spectrum

The chemical shift values are 5.8 ppm, 6.3 ppm, and 4.8 ppm. The chemical shift value of 5.8 ppm has a 1H multiplet of vinyl hydrogen present next to the carbonyl group.

The chemical shift value of 6.3 ppm has a 2H multiplet of vinyl hydrogen pair on the third carbon. The chemical shift value of 4.8 has a 2H multiplet of amide hydrogens.

03

About the IR spectrum

There are two peaks between which confirm the presence of the N-H bonds. There exists a strong peak at which is of C=O and is of C=C. Thus, the structure of the compound is given below.

04

About the NMR spectrum

The chemical shift values of carbon NMR are 171 ppm of carbonyl carbon and 69 ppm of C-O carbon. The chemical shift values of proton NMR are 4.3 ppm and 2.5 ppm. Both the chemical shift values are of the group.

05

About the IR spectrum

There is one small peak at which is of C=O overtone. There is one strong peak at , which is of carbonyl ester. The C-O bond has a peak between and there is no C=C. Thus, the structure of the compound is as below.

(a)Propose a mechanism for the reaction of benzyl alcohol with acetyl chloride to give benzyl acetate.

(b) Propose a mechanism for the reaction of benzoic acid with acetyl chloride to give acetic benzoic anhydride.

(c)Propose a secondmechanism for the reaction of benzoic acid with acetyl chloride to give acetic benzoic anhydride. This time, let the otheroxygen of benzoic acid serve as the nucleophile to attack the carbonyl group of acetyl chloride. Because proton transfers are fast between these oxygen atoms, it is difficult to differentiate between these two mechanisms experimentally.

(d)Propose a mechanism for the reaction of aniline with acetic anhydride to give acetanilide.

(e)Propose a mechanism for the reaction of aniline with ethyl acetate to give acetanilide. What is the leaving group in your proposed mechanism? Would this be a suitable leaving group for an SN2 reaction?

Show how you would use anhydrides to synthesize the following compounds. In each case, explain why an anhydride might be preferable to an acid chloride.

(c) phthalic acid monoamide

Show how you would synthesize each compound, starting with an ester containing no more than eight carbon atoms. Any other necessary reagents may be used.
