Question
Chapter 28.7, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Determine the mechanism for cleavage reaction of the p-Dimethoxytrityl (DMT) ether.
Concept introduction:
The cleavage reaction of p-Dimethoxytrityl (DMT) takes place by the SN1 mechanism. The SN1 reaction is nucleophilic substitution reaction in which nucleophile is replaced by a leaving group. SN1 indicates unimolecular, substitution and nucleophilic reaction.
SN1 reaction takes place in following two steps:
- Leaving group leaves and leaves behind carbocation intermediate.
- Nucleophilic attack on the carbocation to form final product.
The stability of carbocation i.e. 3°>2°>1°, determines the rate of the reaction.
Given information:
The information given in the question is that the DMT ether is easily cleaved by the treatment with mild acid.

Treatment of acetone [(CH3)2C=O] with dilute aqueous base forms B. Compound B exhibits four singlets in its 1H NMR spectrum at 1.3 (6 H), 2.2 (3 H), 2.5 (2 H), and 3.8 (1H) ppm. What is the structure of B?
Treatment of W with CH3Li, followed by CH3I, affords compound Y (C7H14O) as the major product. Y shows a strong absorption in its IR spectrum at 1713 cm−1, and its 1H NMR spectrum is given below. (a) Propose a structure for Y. (b) Draw a stepwise mechanism for the conversion of W to Y.
A synthetic organic molecule, G, which contains both aldehyde and ether functional groups, is subjected to a series of reactions in a multi-step synthesis pathway. In the first step, G undergoes a Wittig reaction, leading to the formation of an alkene, H. Subsequently, H is treated with an ozone (O3) reagent followed by a reducing agent in an ozonolysis reaction, resulting in the formation of two different products, I and J. Considering the functional groups present in G and the nature of the reactions involved, what are the most probable structures or functional groups present in products I and J? A. I contains a carboxylic acid group, and J contains an aldehyde group. B. I contains a ketone group, and J contains an alcohol group. C. I and J both contain aldehyde groups. D. I contains an ester group, and J contains a ketone group. Don't use chat gpt.
