16
Q

carbox bcm acyl halide or acid halide on reaction with what agents

A

reacting carbox with halogented agents

17
Q

name agents use in conversion of carbox into acid halides and which one is preferred

A

PCL5\PCL3\SOCL2
preferred is SOCL2 (thionyl chloride)

18
Q

what kind of reaction is perform to convert carbox into anhydrites

A

condensation reaction reaction which is addition of two molecules with removal of H-OH
in this case, 2 carbox combine to form anhydrite by removal of
H-OH

19
Q

what agent use in making of anhydride

A

dehydrating agent
P2O5
(phosphorous pentoxide)

20
Q

conversion of carbox in ester is called what and happens

A

called esterification
carbox reacts with alcohol to make ester

21
Q

how conversion of carbox in amide

A

react of carbox with ammonia
makes ammonium salt and then amide on heating

22
Q

what kind of reaction is carbox convert in alcohol and mechanism and what kind of alcohol

A

reduction reaction
addition of hydrogen
makes prim alcohol

23
Q

what catalyst used in conversion of carbox in alcohol

A

lithium aluminum hydride LiALH4

24
Q

conversion of carbox in alkane

A

carbox reacts with caustic soda NaOH
form salt and then alkane

25
Q

how salt convert in alkane in reaction of carbox with NaOH

A

salt is convert to alkane by reacting it to soda lime

26
Q

ester present in pineapple

A

ethyl butanoate (C6H12O2)

27
Q

butyric acid formula and its use

A

(C4H8O2)
used in dairy products butter cheese milk

28
