State the reaction mechanism.
Draw the mechanism for this reaction, showing all the curly arrows needed, together with any dipoles and charges.
Two isomeric aromatic compounds, V and W, each have three functional groups, two of which are shown in the table. Complete the table by giving the remaining functional groups present in V and W.
Suggest reagents for steps 1-4.
Deduce the structures of R, S and T and draw their structural formulae in the boxes.
Draw the structures of the two organic products from the reaction of V and W with $\text{LiAlH}_4$.
Name the type of reaction occurring between $\text{LiAlH}_4$ and V or W.
Draw the structures of the two organic products of the hydrolysis of W.
The products formed from the hydrolysis of W dissolve in aqueous acid, but a precipitate, X, is produced when V is hydrolysed. Draw the structure of compound X.
Suggest why X is insoluble in water.
