How did Emil Bayer manage to make the bark of the willow tree that contained the active ingredient and precursor to aspirin LESS acidic via organic chemistry reaction. Be specific, show by chemical reaction and circle all functional groups (parts of the molecule) in the reactants that were altered in the products (circle these too).

3. You are given a mixture of aspirin, phenol, and naphthalene that you need to separate. i) Draw the structures of each, and identify if they are acidic, basic, or neutral compounds. For each compound draw their reaction with the appropriate acidic or basic conditions that will change their solubility and allow them to be separated. ii) What modifications would you have to make to the experimental protocol in order to separate these three compounds? Provide specifics.
3) Consider the molecules of but-2-enal and but-3-enal below. Both molecules can be deprotonated by a strong base such as lithium diisopropylamide (LDA). H 2 H But-3-enal But-2-enal Which molecule is more acidic? Why? Use a reaction coordinate diagram(s) to explain your answer.

Complete each acid-base reaction and predict whether the position of equilibrium lies toward the left or toward the right. (a) CH3CCH+CH3CH2ONa+CH3CH3OH (b) CH3CCCH2CH2OH+Na+NH2NH3(l)
Can you please answer this question with steps. Thanks.
Why are the concepts of basicity and nucleophilicity often related?
Now that you have learned about solubility, explain why aspirin crosses a cell membrane as a neutral carboxylic acid rather than an ionic conjugate base ?
The amines are organic weak bases which are nitrogen-containing. In the early days of organic chemistry, basic amines derived from natural sources were known as “vegetable alkali”, but they are now referred to as alkaloids. The study of alkaloids provided much of the growth of organic chemistry, phytochemistry and natural products chemistry. It remains a fascinating area of research. Please search for one naturally occurring alkaloid and provide the following: Name of the alkaloid and show its structure. Identify using arrows the polar bonds in the structure Species from where it was isolated What was the use of this alkaloid in plants (if any)? What are the pharmacological, medicinal, or environmental uses or applications of this alkaloid (if any)?
Draw both resonance structures of the anion formed by the reaction of the most acidic C-H bond of the compound below with base. Include all valence lone pairs in your answer. For structures having different hydrogens of comparable acidity, assume that the reaction occurs at the less-substituted carbon. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate resonance structures using the ↔ symbol.
Arrange the following molecules in increasing order of acidity. Base it only on their structural differences and explain how it is so. 1. HF, CH3CH2CH2OH, CH3CH2COOH 2. Ethyl amine, Ethanol, Propane
Explain and show step by step how did they got the structure in letter a, f, h, i and L. please answer it all. this is all about carboxylic acid and its derivatives.
