Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The product obtained in skraup synthesis by replacing aniline with para-ethylaniline has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Skraup synthesis is the reaction of aniline with an alpha-beta unsaturated carbonyl compound and proceeds through the formation of carbocation and results in the formation of cyclic ring which on reduction gives quinoline.
(b)
Interpretation: The product obtained in skraup synthesis by replacing glycerol with 3-hexen-2-one has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Skraup synthesis is the reaction of aniline with an alpha-beta unsaturated carbonyl compound and proceeds through the formation of carbocation and results in the formation of cyclic ring which on reduction gives quinoline.
(c)
Interpretation: The reactants required for the preparation of 2,7-diethyl-3-methylquinoline in skraup synthesis should be given.
Concept Introduction:
Skraup synthesis is the reaction of aniline with an alpha-beta unsaturated carbonyl compound and proceeds through the formation of carbocation and results in the formation of cyclic ring which on reduction gives quinoline.

- When a compound like napihthalene C1oHa is dissolved in t-butyl methyl ether, then that solution is extracted with 3 M NaOH, and then the resulting basic aqueous layer is acidified with 6M HCI, what happens to the acidified aqueous layer? a) The naphthalene stays in the the aqueous layer as C10Ha O b) The naphthalene precipitates out as a solid, C10He O C) Nothing happens to the aqueous layer other than a dramatic raising of the pH d) The naphthalene stays in the aqueous layer as C10H>Na O e) Nothing happens to the aqueous layer other than a dramatic lowering of the pH O) The acid precipitates out as a solid, C10H>Naarrow_forwardProstaglandins are a class of eicosanoids, fatty acid derivatives with a variety of extremely potent actions on vertebrate tissues. They are responsible for producing fever and inflammation and its associated pain. Prostaglandins are derived from the 20- carbon fatty acid arachidonic acid in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase. This enzyme, a cyclooxygenase, uses oxygen to convert arachidonic acid to PGG2, the immediate precursor of many different prostaglandins. Rate of formation of PGG2 with 10 mg/ml ibuprofen (mM/min) Arachidonic acid (mM) Rate of formation of PGG2 (mM/min) 0.190 12.3 0.228 13.9 0.342 17.5 0.570 1.33 22.2 28.8 7.71 8.88 11.9 16.3 24.0 The kinetic data given in the table are for the reaction catalyzed by a mutant of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase.

Compare the acidities of same concentrations of acetic acid, chloroacetic acid, cantrichloroacetic acid.3. Explain the structural effect influencing the acidity of phenol4. Compare the basicity of n-butylamine and diethylamine.arrow_forwardAccount for the fact that treating propenoic acid (acrylic acid) with HCl gives only 3-chloropropanoic acid.arrow_forwardAldehydes and ketones react with one molecule of an alcohol to form compounds called hemiacetals, in which there is one hydroxyl group and one ether-like group. Reaction of a hemiacetal with a second molecule of alcohol gives an acetal and a molecule of water. We study this reaction in Chapter 16. Draw structural formulas for the hemiacetal and acetal formed from these reagents. The stoichiometry of each reaction is given in the problem.arrow_forward

For example, the reaction of two equivalents of benzyl salicylate and one equivalent of sebacoyl chloride forms a poly(anhydride ester) called PolyAspirin, which hydrolyzes to salicylic acid (an anti-inammatory agent) and sebacic acid, which is excreted. This technology can perhaps be used for localized drug delivery at specic sites of injury. What is the structure of PolyAspirin?arrow_forward
