What is substituted imine called?
Compounds A and C in the following reaction are:
\[\ce{CH3CHO ->[(i) CH3MgBr][(ii) H2O] (A) ->[H2SO4, Δ] (B) ->[Hydroboration oxidation] (C)}\]
Why are carboxylic acids more acidic than alcohols or phenols although all of them have hydrogen atom attached to a oxygen atom \[\ce{(-O-H)}\]?
Assertion: The α-hydrogen atom in carbonyl compounds is less acidic.
Reason: The anion formed after the loss of α-hydrogen atom is resonance stabilised.
