Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A phenol which is used as a disinfectant for cleaning walls is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Those compounds which contain two or more
(b)
Interpretation:
A phenol which is used as an antiseptic found in some mouthwashes is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Those compounds which contain two or more functional groups are known as polyfunctional compounds. Many organic compounds have complex structures which involve multiple rings and long carbon chains. The replacement of the hydrogen atom by an aromatic ring results in the formation of a compound known as phenol.
(c)
Interpretation:
A phenol which is used as antioxidant to prevent rancidity in foods is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Those compounds which contain two or more functional groups are known as polyfunctional compounds. Many organic compounds have complex structures which involve multiple rings and long carbon chains. The replacement of the hydrogen atom by an aromatic ring results in the formation of a compound known as phenol.

- The specific rotation of a sample depends upon measured angle of rotation, the density of the sample, and the pathway length of the light. True Falsearrow_forwardConsider the molecule A,B, C and D shown below, (1 x 4) Br NH2 A OH Br 边 H B C D 1. Assign the R/S configuration to each chiral center and identify by circling all the chiral centers. 2. Draw an image for the enantiomer of each of the compounds A, B, C and D.arrow_forwardCould you crystallize one enantiomer of mandelic acid from a racemic mixture (using the typical achiral solvents found in our lab) without preparing a diastereomeric salt? Why or why not? No, because both enantiomers have the same solubility in achiral solvents. than the other. ооо Yes, because one enantiomer has a higher melting point No, because both enantiomers are liquids. Yes, because one enantiomer is more crystalline than the other.arrow_forward
- If the literature value of specific rotation for a chiral compound is -53.6°, what is the enantiomeric excess of a compound with a measured specific rotation of -40.5°?arrow_forwardThe process to determine the configuration, starts by placing the lowest priority substituent toward the back. If the substituents pointing forward decrease in priority in a clockwise order, the configuration is S. If the substituents decrease in priority in a counterclockwise order, the configuration is R.
