Both pyridine and pyrrole are nitrogen containing aromaticheterocyclic compounds. When treated with HCI, only pyridine forms a
hydrochloride salt, whereas pyrrole is unreactive Which of the following is not a valid explanation for this observed reactivity?
pyridine
ругrole
O The lone pair on pyridine is not part of the aromatic system.
O The lone pair on pyridine can be protonated without disrupting the aromatic stability.
O The lone pair on pyrrole is sp hybridized and is less prone to protonation.
O Protonation of pyrrole leads to a nonaromatic cation, which is less stable
O The lone pair on pyrrole is involved in making the compound aromatic and thus is less susceptible to protonation.
Rank group of compounds from most reactive to least reactive toward electrophilic aromatic substitution:
:- benzene, benzoic acid, phenol, propylbenzene
The order of increasing acidity is
Phenol < meta-cyanophenol < ortho-cyanophenol
1.how about para-cyanophenol??does it has higher acidicity than both ortho-cyanophenol and meta cyanophenol or lower??
2.why does ortho-cyanophenol have higher acidicity than meta cyanophenol??
3. why doesmeta cyanophenol have higher acidicity than Phenol
