(b) one dihedral angle in methyl formate relates the plane containing the o=c–o bonds to the plane containing the c–o–c bonds. i
dentify two structures of methyl formate: one in which this dihedral angle is 0° and the other in which it is 180°.
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Methyl formate sometimes is also known as methyl methanoate. The removal of an anion from formate result in formic acid. So, we can simply say that methyl formate is a methyl ester of formic acid. Esters are named as alkyl derivates. Methyl formate is a colorless volatile liquid with a pleasant smell that is slightly soluble in water.
However, a dihedral angle is an angle that exists between pairs of chemical bonds separated by a third bond.
From the images attached below, we will see how methyl formate connects to the plane at an angle of 0° and 180°.
