They do not contain intramolecular hydrogen bonds and are generally poor nucleophiles.
They do not contain intramolecular hydrogen bonds and are generally poor nucleophiles. They can participate in hydrogen bonds, and are generally water- soluble. They combine with Grignard (green-YARD) reagents in a one-to-two ratio to produce tertiary alcohols, and can be hydrolyzed in either strongly acidic or strongly basic solutions to form carboxylic acids. Produced by reacting an alkanol with an alkonolic acid, for 10 points, identify these compounds in which two R groups are separated by a carbon double-bonded to one oxygen and single-bonded to another.
