carboxylic acid with a ketone group usse fir reduce kardiya so just a carboxylic acid
Nimboi

I was under the impression that oxygen donates a lone pair to AlCl3, becomes O(+), then breaks the bond, becoming just uncharged O

then H2SO4 se Carbocation on the acid
Nimboi
NimboiOP•3mo ago
yeah the rest of it makes sense
Opt
Opt•3mo ago
Well, technically it's not an O(-)
Nimboi
NimboiOP•3mo ago
wh why the minus sign then 💀
Dexter
Dexter•3mo ago
The carbonyl wala O donates it actually
Nimboi
NimboiOP•3mo ago
also yeah if its not O(-) then it cant form the carboxylic acid

Technically it's this But we draw O(-) for simplicity's sake

wait does a single H(+) then just replaced the entire AlCl3 structure to give OH
Opt
Opt•3mo ago
Because anyways that H(+) that gets released is gonna take care of it. Mhm.

wow ok @Dexter nevermind its all g
