What accounts for the geometry (pyramidalization) of the NH2 group in aniline?
1. Resonance between the NH2 group and the benzene ring.
2. The electronic withdrawing nature of the sp2 carbons in the phenyl group.
3. Participation of the nitrogen lone pair to make the system aromatic.
4. Both 1 and 3.
True or False
1. With alkynes having 2 pi bonds, they have more electron-rich region than alkenes and, thus, are more reactive than alkenes.
2. Hydrobromination of an alkene follows anti-Markovnikov’s rule in the presence of a peroxide.
3. The reaction of BH3 with 2-methylbut-2-ene results in the attachment of a hydroxyl group, OH, on the third carbon since this carbon is less substituted.
4. The reduction of an alkyne using a strong base such as LiNH2 gives an alkane when 2 equivalents of hydrogen gas is added.

When this product was treated with another equivalent of Br2, three different compounds of molecular formula C6H4Br2 were formed.a. Explain why a single Kekulé structure is consistent with the first result, but does not explain the second result.b. Then explain why a resonance description of benzene is consistent with the results of both reactions.arrow_forward
