Dr. Eeva synthesized two aliphatic carboxylic acids known as compounds Y and 2. She wanted to examine one physical property of compound Z respect to acidicity. Draw the possible strtural formulae for compounds Y and Z and identify their IUPAC name. Discuss why compound Z is less acidic than the acid chloride group.

Chapter 1 (Carbonyl compounds I) Explain how the class I carbonyl compound reacts? What will be the product when ethylamine and propyl amine reacts with acetyl chloride? Why only one amide obtained after the reaction of acetyl chloride with a mixture of ethylamine and trimethylamine? Excess amine is required in the reaction of acetyl chloride with amine whereas excess alcohol is not required in the reaction of acetyl chloride and alcohol. Why? List the following ester in order of decreasing reactivities towards hydrolysis with reason: Methyl benzoate, p-nitro methyl benzoate and p-methoxy methyl benzoate The reaction of an ester with an amine is not as slow as the reaction of an ester with water or an alcohol. Explain with reason. Explain why the rate of aminolysis of an ester cannot be increased by H+, OH- or OR-. How can you activate the carboxylic acid? Is acid catalyzed hydrolysis of acetamide a reversible or an irreversible reaction. Explain. Chapter 2 (Carbonyl compounds II)…
The amines are organic weak bases which are nitrogen-containing. In the early days of organic chemistry, basic amines derived from natural sources were known as “vegetable alkali”, but they are now referred to as alkaloids. The study of alkaloids provided much of the growth of organic chemistry, phytochemistry and natural products chemistry. It remains a fascinating area of research. Please search for one naturally occurring alkaloid and provide the following: Name of the alkaloid and show its structure. Identify using arrows the polar bonds in the structure Species from where it was isolated What was the use of this alkaloid in plants (if any)? What are the pharmacological, medicinal, or environmental uses or applications of this alkaloid (if any)?
Part A The chemical 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione, better known as luminol, is used by forensic scientists in analyzing crime scenes for the presence of washed-away blood. Luminol is so sensitive that it can detect blood that has been diluted 10,000 times. A basic solution of luminol is often sprayed onto surfaces that are suspected of containing minute amounts of blood. The forensic technician at a crime scene has just prepared a luminol stock solution by adding 15.0 g of luminol into a total volume of 75.0 mL of H2O. What is the molarity of the stock solution of luminol? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Luminol has a molecular weight of 177 g/mol. • View Available Hint(s) HẢ molarity of luminol solution = Value Units Submit Part B Before investigating the scene, the technician must dilute the luminol solution to a concentration of 6.00x10-2 M. The diluted solution is then placed in a spray bottle for application on the desired surfaces. How many moles of…
Which compound is more acidic and why? I thought it would be the right, because nitrogen has a hydrogen attached to it, but oxygen is more electronegative than nitrogen, but doesn't have a hydrogen readily available (other than the methyl group on the other side).
