Chapter 12, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

It should be determined that whether an organolithium compound or organosodium compound is more reactive.

Concept Introduction:

Nucleophilic reaction: electron rich nucleophiles attack the positive or partially positive charge of an atom and replace a leaving group is called Nucleophilic Substitution reaction.

Electrophilic reaction: The aromatic substitution involves the attack on the electrophile by the πelectron of the aromatic ring and replacing one of the hydrogen molecules on the ring (or) respective species.

Reactivity of organometallic compound: The reactivity of an organometallic compound depends on the polarity of the carbon-metal bond, the greater the polarity of the bond, the more reactive the compound is as a nucleophile, the polarity of the bond on the difference in electronegativity between the metal and carbon atom.

Organolithium: Organolithium compounds are very strong base, therefore they will react immediately with any acid present in the reaction mixture, even with very week acids such as water and alcohol.

Organosodium: Organosodium compound are less base when compare to the organo lithium compound because, organosodium compounds have less electronegative character.

How many signals do you expect in the H NMR spectrum for this molecule? Br Br Write the answer below. Also, in each of the drawing areas below is a copy of the molecule, with Hs shown. In each copy, one of the H atoms is colored red. Highlight in red all other H atoms that would contribute to the same signal as the H already highlighted red. Note for advanced students: In this question, any multiplet is counted as one signal. Number of signals in the 'H NMR spectrum. For the molecule in the top drawing area, highlight in red any other H atoms that will contribute to the same signal as the H atom already highlighted red. If no other H atoms will contribute, check the box at right. No additional Hs to color in top molecule For the molecule in the bottom drawing area, highlight in red any other H atoms that will contribute to the same signal as the H atom already highlighted red. If no other H atoms will contribute, check the box at right. No additional Hs to color in bottom molecule
