Answer:
Sodium Borohydride (NaBH₄)
Explanation:
Methyl diantilis (2-Ethoxy-4-(methoxymethyl)phenol) is a fragrance compound which smells like Vanilla. This compound is being synthesized from 3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde also known as Ethyl Vanillin in two steps.
Step 1: Reduction of Aldehydic Group on Ethyl Vanillin:
The benzaldehyde derivative is treated with a mild reducing agent i.e. NaBH₄ (Sodium Borohydride). NaBH₄ is a source of Hydride (H⁻) ion and undergoes nucleophilic substitution reaction yielding 2-ethoxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol.
Step 2: Etherification of 2-ethoxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol:
In the second step 2-ethoxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol is treated with Methanol in the presence of strong acidic polymeric resin known as Amberlyst-15-wet resulting in the formation of Methyl diantilis as shown in attached figure.
Answer:
<h3>Explanation:
First balance the chemical equation:
⇄
two components are solid so these two will not exert any kind of pressure in the container so at equilibrium only CO2 will apply pressure on the container
Therefore only partial pressure of CO2 will be taken for the calculation of equilibrium pressure constant i.e. Kp
