Problem Set #5 III) Acid/Base Reaction - Answer the next few questions about Molecule B, shown below. a) Circle the terms that correctly describe the molecule. oh H-bond acceptor dextrorotatory contains ketone racemic has enantiomer H-bond donor Molecule B [a] = -27.8 optically active contains aldehyde levorotatory b) Molecule B can react with another molecule in an acid/base reaction (shown below). of In the spaces provided, please do the following: i) Draw the structure of the missing molecule in the space provided. ii) Circle ONE: The missing molecule is a: conjugate acid conjugate base iii) Clearly draw curved arrows to show the forward mechanism. iv) Without referring to pKa values, predict whether the equilibrium will favor reactants or products, and give an explanation why. Circle ONE: reactants products Explanation
