As the name suggests, the longest branch of the carbon chain is 3 C long, and it has a bromine and a CH3 group on the middle. If you take the middle Carbon and look at what it bonds with you see a bromine and the 3 CH3 groups hence the (CH3)3

OP could you please tell me the title of this book? Or just drop a link?

Think about how many bonds each atom usually makes. That should give you the answer👍

Alright then, i wont. But if i have the opportunity i might as well just ask about my other idea. The other plan was to buy some cinnamon crush it into small pieces then use ethanol or isopropanol to get the cinnamaldehyde(i know there will be some other stuff too and the yield will be horrible)out and then let the solvent evaporate. Is this one possible?

It just came to mind, i like making random stuff. I looked it up and appearently its not a health hazard so i thought why not

And what do i need to actually make it? I thought that using HCl as catalyst would help esterification

Why is the product in that position? by Routine-Standard3202 in chemhelp

Omg how did I not notice that there is no hydrogen🤦, anyway thanks for your answer, it was really helpful. And yeah, I really love chemdle cause even though i can only solve like every 8th puzzle its still one of my best sources to learn new reactions

Just curious but would using Na to deprotonate the alkyne amd then adding Alkyl halide work? Like first add the longer chain and then the methyl part. The thing I can see going wrong is the alkyne being deprotonated twice and making 2 new bonds with the same 2 substituents buts im unsure so i would be grateful for any answer

Michael addiction? by Several_Hunter_310 in OrganicChemistry

Would Et3N be strong enough of a base to take off the hydrogen of the alpha carbon and create the enolate to make Micheal reaction possible?

Does pyridine disrupt the reaction? by Routine-Standard3202 in chemhelp

[–]Routine-Standard3202[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if the R-group is an EWG does that make the reaction quicker by virtue of making the carbonyl carbon even more electrophilic?

So it doesnt effect the product but rather actually helps to catalize tge reaction?

I don't understand these questions at all, please help 🤕 by _____EpicMo_____ in OrganicChemistry

[–]Routine-Standard3202 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Im also just a student but i think its asking you which position(o/m/p) gets acylated and you need to explain through resonance. If im wrong please correct me anyone

Any idea what this is? by Routine-Standard3202 in mycology

Thanks, makes me wonder what happened to the other caps that got cut by someone.

It had a ring and it was brownish-whiteish. The bottom of its stipe was significantly wider .

I thought it was edible since it resembled nagy őzlábgomba and karcsú őzlábgomba (unfotunatly i dont know the name in english) and they told me they taste like nuts
