Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The structures for the products A, B, C, and D showing stoichiometry are to be written.
Concept Introduction:
For carrying out a nucleophilic substitution on alcohols, first the hydroxyl group of an alcohol gets converted to a good leaving group to a p-toluenesulfonate ester derivative on reaction with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride
If the mechanism of nucleophilic substitution is
Usually, primary alcohols undergo

- Describe the characteristic infrared absorption frequencies that would allow you to distinguish between the following pairs of compounds. (a) cyclohex-2-enone and cyclohex-3-enone (b) cyclohexanol and cyclohexanonearrow_forwardExplain the following observations :(i) The boiling point of ethanol is higher than that of methoxymethane.(ii) Phenol is more acidic than ethanol.(iii) o- and p-nitrophenols are more acidic than phenol.arrow_forwardGive reasons :(a) n-Butyl bromide has higher boiling point than f-butyl bromide.(b) Racemic mixture is optically inactive.(c) The presence of nitro group (-NO2) at o/p positions increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution reactions.arrow_forward
