An organic chemistry experiment involves a nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reaction using 1-iodobutane and 2-naphthoxide ion. The 2-naphthoxide ion is generated from 2-naphthol and sodium hydroxide in an ethanol solvent. The experiment includes steps like generating the nucleophile, conducting the SN2 reaction, and analyzing the product using 1H NMR spectroscopy. Question: On the 1H NMR spectra (attached), draw the structure of the product and assign the peaks. Label the unique protons with different letters and write those same letters by the peaks in the NMR spectrum.
Why is methanol chosen as the solvent for recrystallization? What would happen if the student uses dichloromethane instead? The reaction is Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution: Friedel-Crafts Alkylation. More info attached
For each reaction, decide whether the reaction is a redox reaction, acid-base reaction, electrophile- nucleophile, or something else. One can begin to identify the type of reaction by looking to see if oxidation numbers of atoms that take part in the reaction change during the reaction. You will need to draw out the structures. a. If the reaction is considered an acid- base reaction, draw out the full mechanism for the reaction. Be sure to indicate which compound is the acid, base, and conjugate acid and base (where possible). b. If the reaction is considered a redox reaction, be sure to indicate which species are oxidized and which are reduced. c. For every reaction you will need to justify your identification of the type of reaction.
