Hello students, so the question is which reagent will be used to convert the carboxylic acid into the acid chloride? so the diaconversion will give is give the reagent which will be used is socl2.
00:16
So this is a good halogenating agent for any carboxylic acid.
00:20
Now let's see the mechanism over here.
00:23
So this is the acid over here and it will be reacted by the socl2.
00:33
Let's draw the structure of socl2.
00:35
So s double bond o and cl and another cl.
00:40
Now here the oxygen over here has the lone pair of electrons.
00:46
So it will act as a nucleophile towards this s which will act as electrophile.
00:52
So here this nucleophilic attack will take place and when this attack takes place there will be the first this bond will shift up and this bond will break and will form double bond.
01:08
So let's see the intermediate which is formed over here which is now so to make this intermediate stable this will form double bond over here and there will be the removal of so here the chlorine now becomes the good living group so to stabilize the structure it will removed get removed...
