Concept Introduction:
Electrophiles are electron deficient species which has positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles which accept electron pair.
Nucleophiles are electron rich species which has negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles which donate electron pair.
Free radical is an atom, molecule or ion that has unpaired electrons which makes it highly chemically reactive.
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon or a functional group is substituted by any other functional group is called substitution reaction.
Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called elimination reaction.
Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated molecules by the addition of molecules.
The reaction of amides with bromine in a basic medium, followed by the removal of the carbonate ion from the system, results in the formation of amine as a product.
They can act as nucleophiles and electrophiles in organic reactions.
Amines can be classified into three categories: primary amines, secondary amines, and tertiary amines.

Propose experimental conditions for the conversion of (C) to (D).arrow_forwardGive detailed answer with explanation please don't give Handwritten answerarrow_forwardThe following three derivatives of succinimide are anticonvulsants that have found use in the treatment of epilepsy, particularly petit mal seizures. Q. Describe the chemistry involved in the conversion of (B) to (C). You need not present detailed mechanisms. Rather, state what is accomplished by treating (B) with NaOH and then with HCl followed by heating.arrow_forward
- The –NHCOR group of an amide is an activating group, but it is not as strongly activating as NH2. (a) Explain why it is an activating group. (b) Explain why it is less activating than NH2.arrow_forward1arrow_forwardWhich of these 3 compounds is the least basic: aniline, 2-propylamine and 1-(2-aminophenyl)ethenone.arrow_forward
- As far back as the 16th century, South American Incas chewed the leaves of the coca bush, Erythroxylon coca, to combat fatigue. Chemical studies of Erythroxylon coca by Friedrich Wöhler in 1862 resulted in the discovery of cocaine, C17H21NO4, as the active component. Basic hydrolysis of cocaine leads to methanol, benzoic acid, and another compound called ecgonine, C9H15NO3. Oxidation of ecgonine with CrO3 yields a keto acid that readily loses CO2 on heating, giving tropinone. (a) What is a likely structure for the keto acid? (b) What is a likely structure for ecgonine, neglecting stereochemistry? (c) What is a likely structure for cocaine, neglecting stereochemistry?arrow_forwardd-Glucuronic acid is found widely in plants and animals. One of its functions is to detoxify poisonous HO-containing compoundsby reacting with them in the liver to form glucuronides. Glucuronides are water soluble and therefore readily excreted. Afteringestion of a poison such as turpentine or phenol, the glucuronides of these compounds are found in the urine. Draw thestructure of the a- and b-glucuronides formed by the reaction of b-d-glucuronic acid and phenol.arrow_forwardIs amitriptyline chiral? If so, how many of the possible stereoisomers are formed in this synthesis?arrow_forward
