Answer:
Formic acid H. COOH
Acetic acid CH3.COOH
Propionic acid CH3 . CH1 . COOH
Butyric acid CH3 . CH1 . CH1 . COOH
Explanation:
In this reaction
ester is reduced to
aldehyde. Such reduction can not be achieved by reacting reducing agents like
LiAlH₄ because it will further reduce aldehydes to alcohols. So, in order to stop reduction at alddehyde, ester is reacted with bulky reducing agent, <span>
Diisobutylaluminium hydride (DIBAL) which works with same mechanism as that LiAlH</span>₄ do. It also add hydride to carbonyl group. The reaction is shown below,
Answer:
Percentage of yield = 1%
Explanation:
Given:
Amount of yield = 5g
Total amount of product = 500 gram
Find:
Percentage of yield = ?
Computation:
⇒ Percentage of yield = [Amount of yield / Total amount of product]100
⇒ Percentage of yield = [5g / 500g]100
⇒ Percentage of yield = [0.01]100
⇒ Percentage of yield = 1%
