Answer:
Both reactions proceeds through nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction
Explanation:
- Both these two reactions proceeds through nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction where phenyl magnesium bromide replaces one ethoxide ion.
- Then another another equivalent of phenyl magnesium bromide give nucleophilic addition reaction with resulting keto group to produce triphenylmethanol
- Full reaction mechanism has been shown below
Aspartame produces 4 kilocalories of energy per gram when metabolized, While table sugar produces 3.9 kilocalories. However, aspartame is approximately 200 times sweeter than table of sugar, so it is consumed in much smaller doses. Then we can say that they're pretty much the same
