To identify the compounds A, B, and C in the given reaction sequence, we will break down the reaction step by step. ### Step 1: Identify Compound A The starting compound is ethyl 2-bromopropanoate, which can be represented as: \[ \text{CH}_2\text{BrCOOC}_2\text{H}_5 \] When this compound reacts with zinc (Zn), the bromine atom (Br) is replaced by zinc bromide (ZnBr), resulting in the formation of an intermediate compound. The reaction mechanism involves the reduction of the bromine atom by zinc, leading to the formation of a carbanion at the carbon adjacent to the carbonyl group. ...
