The name of this reaction is Friedel-Crafts acylation. It should have a major product adding a ketone at the para position with regard to the isopropyl of the cumene.

What happen when benzene reacts with ch3cocl in presence oa hydrous alcl3?

This is an example of a Friedel-Crafts acylation. One hydrogen from the benzene is replaced by the acetyl portion of the acetyl chloride and the hydrogen and chloride from the benzene and acetyl chloride respectively combine to form HCl. Please see the link.

What is the mechanism of synthesis of acetyl glycine from glycine?

The nucleophilic nitrogen attacks the carbonyl carbon of acetyl chloride. HCl gas is released and acetyl glycine is formed.


What would happen if the sulfuric acid was left out in the reaction between acetic anhydride and salicylic acid to prepare acetylsalicylic acid?

Because Salicylic Acid reacts with Acetic Anhydride in the presence of H2SO4 and CH3COOH to give Aspirin. The sulphuric acid does not react. If you measure the volume/weight of the acid before the reaction and after the reaction, there will be no change. Note:-You can also use Acetyl Chloride in the presence of phosphoric acid instead on Acetic Anhydride.


Why doesn't acetyl chloride exhibit a haloform reaction even though it has a keto-methyl group?

The chemistry of acetyl chloride is not as a methyl ketone but as an acyl halide. All the action is on the carbon atom with the oxygen and chlorine. In the haloform reax the methyl carbon gets attacked losing a proton, picking up a halide and leaving an OH behind to form an acid and a haloform.
