Question

Consider the reaction of acetone dissolved in dry ethanol bubbled with hcl(g). Arrange the mechanistic steps, then select the name that best describes the final product. Some steps may be used more than once and not all steps will be used.

Answer 1

When there is a  reaction of acetone dissolved in dry ethanol bubbled with HCl(g), The Mechanistic steps are arranged in this way

• Protonation of carbonyl
• Nucleophilic attack of ethanol
• Deprotonation of protonated ethen
• Protonation of the hydroxy group
• loss of an H20 leaving group
• Nucleophilic attack of ethanol
• Deprotonation of protonated ethen

Mechanistic steps

A mechanistic is simply the stages of a reaction mechanism. There are 4 different mechanistic steps that are

1. proton transfer,
2. nucleophilic attack,
3. loss of a leaving group
4. rearrangement.

When acetone dissolved in dry ethanol bubbled with HCl(g) the mechanistic steps are  as follows

• Protonation of carbonyl
• Nucleophilic attack of ethanol
• Deprotonation of protonated ethen
• Protonation of the hydroxy group
• loss of an H20 leaving group
• Nucleophilic attack of ethanol
• Deprotonation of protonated ethen
