YISHUN INNOVA JUNIOR COLLEGE 2021 JC2 H2 CHEMISTRY HALOGEN DERIVATIVES (ADVANCED) VJC/2020/I/23 9 Epoxy resins are polymers which are used in adhesives. One monomer used in their manufacture has the following structure. This monomer is manufactured from propene in three stages: Stage I : Stage II : Stage III : Which statements are correct for the above synthesis? 1 Stage I requires the use of ultraviolet light. 2 Stage II is an electrophilic addition. 3 Stage III is a nucleophilic substitution.

EJC/2020/III/4ai 12 Nucleophilic substitution reactions can proceed via bimolecular or unimolecular mechanisms, which is often dependent on whether the halogenoalkane is primary, secondary, or tertiary. Fig. 4.1 shows the experimental data for a kinetics study for the reaction between aqueous sodium hydroxide and a solution of benzyl bromide, C 6 H 5 CH 2 Br, which is carried out at constant temperature.

(iv) Suggest and explain how the rate of reaction would change if aqueous potassium hydroxide of the same concentration was used in place of aqueous sodium hydroxide. [1] HCI/2020/II/4c 13 In 2019, a group of researchers from Singapore published an article in Science , one of the world’s top academic journals, about the discovery of an unusual nucleophilic substitution reaction involving tertiary halogenoalkanes. This new reaction, named halogenophilic nucleophilic substitution (S N 2X), is an unconventional method of synthesising a chiral product with a large excess of one enantiomer over the other. A simplified overall scheme of the S N 2X reaction, as well as the conventional unimolecular nucleophilic substitution (S N 1), are shown in Fig. 4.2. Fig. 4.2 (i) Suggest why tertiary halogenoalkanes typically do not undergo S N 2 reactions. [1] (ii) Instead, tertiary halogenoalkanes undergo S N 1 reactions to produce racemic product mixtures. Explain why this is so. [1] Fig. 4.3 shows the mechanism of the S N 2X reaction which involves the generation of a carbanion intermediate and an uncharged Nu-X intermediate. The carbanion intermediate and Nu-X interact with an enantiomerically-pure chiral cation (shown by the dotted lines) in the second step before undergoing a reaction. This results in a product mixture with a large excess of one enantiomer. Fig. 4.3 (iii) Suggest why a chiral cation is crucial in the S N 2X reaction to obtain a product mixture with a large excess of one enantiomer. [1]

When above reaction involving 1-bromobutane was replaced with (CH 3 ) 3 CBr, a reaction with a different overall order of reaction was obtained. State the overall order of reaction for the reaction involving (CH 3 ) 3 CBr and account for this different overall order of reaction. [2]
