Concept explainers
Interpretation:
a) The first step in the preparation of Hagemann’s ester, an aldol-like condensation between ethylacetoacetate and formaldehyde to produce a α, β-unsaturated product and the structure of the product is to be shown.
b) The structure of the product obtained in the second step which is a Michael reaction between the product of the first step and ethyl acetoactate is to be given.
Concept introduction:
In the first step in the preparation of Hagemann’s ester involving a mixed aldol like condensation reaction, ethyl acetoacetate yields an enolate anion which attacks formaldehyde to yield an α, β-unsaturated product.
In the second step α, β-unsaturated product obtained in the first step acts as a donor and ethyl acetoacetate acts as the acceptor (Michael reaction) to yield the product.
To give:
a) The first step in the preparation of Hagemann’s ester, an aldol-like condensation between ethylacetoacetate and formaldehyde to produce α, β-unsaturated product and the structure of the product.
b) The structure of the product obtained in the second step which is a Michael reaction between the product of the first step and ethyl acetoactate.

- Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring.It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+): CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l) a) Given 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100% yield? b) A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.25 g of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield? c) The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield.

- The Stork reaction is a condensation reaction between an enamine donor and an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl acceptor. The overall reaction consists of a three-step sequence of formation of an enamine from a ketone, Michael addition to an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, and hydrolysis of the enamine in dilute acid to regenerate the ketone. Consider the Stork reaction between acetophenone and 3-buten-2-one. Draw the structure of the product of the enamine formed between acetophenone and pyrrolidine.
