Chapter 3: Problem 62

\(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}+\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{COCl} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OCOC}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5}+\mathrm{HCl}\). This reaction is called (a) Schotten-Baumann reaction (b) Perkin reaction (c) Schmidt reaction (d) Claisen reaction

Short Answer

Expert verified
$$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}+\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{COCl} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OCOC}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5}+\mathrm{HCl}$$ Answer: The given chemical reaction is a Claisen reaction.

Step by step solution

01

Examine Option (a) Schotten-Baumann Reaction

Schotten-Baumann reaction is a method to synthesize amides from amines and acid chlorides. Since our given reaction involves the formation of an ester rather than an amide, this option is incorrect.
02

Examine Option (b) Perkin Reaction

In the Perkin reaction, we have the formation of aromatic cinnamic acids and α,β-unsaturated aromatic acids through the condensation of acetic anhydride and aromatic aldehydes. As the given reaction does not involve aldehydes and doesn't form cinnamic acids, this option is also incorrect.
03

Examine Option (c) Schmidt Reaction

The Schmidt reaction is the formation of a ketone through the migration of an acetyl group to azides. Our given reaction does not involve azides and doesn't form ketones, so this option is incorrect.
04

Examine Option (d) Claisen Reaction

The Claisen reaction is an ester formation reaction that happens as a result of nucleophilic acyl substitution. In this case, we have the formation of the ester from phenol and acid chloride, which perfectly matches the given reaction. So, the correct answer is #(d) Claisen reaction#.
