Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Given reaction has to be completed.
Concept Introduction:
Acid: According to Bronsted-Lowry theory, a species which donates a proton in a proton transfer-reaction is said to be an acid.
Base: According to Bronsted-Lowry theory, a species which accepts a proton in a proton transfer-reaction is said to be base.
Conjugated acid: In the conjugate acid-base pair, a species which can donates a proton is said to be conjugated acid.
Conjugated base: In the conjugate acid-base pair, a species which can accepts a proton is said to be conjugated base.

- In each of the following reactions, two possible organic products can be formed. Draw both organic products in each case and then circle the one formed in greatest quantity in each case. HC (a) 1) NaH, 2) acid (b) CH,CH,OH (c) CH,CH,OH NH2 (d) Oarrow_forwardarrange the following compound types in order of decreasing ease of hydrolysis: acid halides, acid anhydrides, esters, and amides. Use > in your arrangement.arrow_forwardWrite the chemical equation for the reaction of N,N-diethyl-1-propanamine with water. Which is the formula of this rule of reaction? (Hint: the amine is a base):arrow_forward
- Amines as Bases. Explain ?arrow_forwardWrite the chemical equation for a pentanoate ion acting as base when it reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCI). Which is formula of this rule of reaction?arrow_forwardThe structure of an amide is shown below. || -C - NHCH,CH3 An amide can be reduced to an amine when treated with a reducing agent. Give the class type of the amine formed. Answer:arrow_forward
- 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)?arrow_forwardExplain why 3-methylbutylamine is a stronger base than the corresponding amide, 3-methylbutanamide, (CH3)2CHCH₂CONH₂.arrow_forwardb) Compounds in which the –OH of the carboxyl group is replaced by certain other groups are called carboxylic acid derivatives. The most important of which are acyl halides, acid anhydrides, esters and amides. Discuss the relationship between carboxylic acid, acid chloride and acid anhydridearrow_forward
- Briefly, but clearly, explain why the –OH hydrogen in acetic acid (CH3CO2H) is more acidic than in ethanol (C2H5OH).arrow_forwardPart c and darrow_forwardRank the following compounds in order of increasing basicity.
