Alright guys, just confused over a little bit here:
http://store.aqa.org.uk/qual/gceasa/...W-QP-JUN06.PDF
See q 4 a part ii
I get the answer right for compound 1, but compound 2 - wtf. I thought as compound one was a carboxylic acid, compound 2 would be have two alchohol groups so condensation can take place. Didn't see that it is apparently an acly chloride, why is this? Cheers

(Original post by Lou Reed)
It can be both. One of the compounds is either HOOC(CH(CH3))2COOH or ClOC(CH(CH3))2COCl.
The other is HO(CH(CH3))2OH.But it's not on the mark scheme apparently? Or am I reading something wrong, if it is on there then sorted, if not then I'm confused
