In this laboratory, you will perform a base-mediated hydrolysis reaction. (A) Practice your mechanism skills by providing a detailed arrow-pushing mechanism for the base- mediated hydrolysis shown below. Note, the mechanism of the reaction you will perform is very similar. (B) Label the ‘tetrahedral intermediate’. (C) Draw an arrow-pushing mechanism for the acidification of the carboxvlate salt to give the carboxvlic acid. Parts (A)and (B) OH (excess) Part (C): HCI OH
