So you'll need to get a rough estimate - the first step in figuring out if you can afford the kind of house you're fantasizing about. Start by talking with general contractors or home-building consultants in your area. If you decide to go for a custom home, you'll need to interview firms anyway to assist you.
Carboxylic derivatives are described as compounds that can be converted to carboxylic acids via simple acidic or. basic hydrolysis. The most important acid derivatives are esters, amides and nitriles, although acid halides and anhydrides are also. derivatives (really activated forms of a carboxylic acid).

The group of choice is an acid chloride.h18 Ketones and Aldehydes (landscape) Page 17 The carbonyl group is a weak base, and in acidic solution it can become protonated. This makes the carbon very electrophilic (see resonance structures), and so it will react with poor nucleophiles.
