Question

What are the consequences of removing some of the phase transfer catalyst along with the hot reaction mixture after refluxing? a)The phase transfer catalyst acts to remove small amounts of water from the mixture leading to increased purity of the product b)The phase transfer catalyst likely contains some product so the percent yield will be increased c)Since the reaction is in equilibrium, the phase transfer catalyst reacts with the product in a reverse reaction leading to reduced yield d)The phase transfer catalyst will act as an impurity in the product which reduces melting point
