Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The synthesis of each of the given compounds from the given starting material is to be shown.
Concept Introduction:
They can act as nucleophiles and electrophiles in organic reactions.
Amines can be classified into three categories: primary amines, secondary amines, and tertiary amines.
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.

Well-known examples include skunks and Bombardier beetle from the animal kingdom, but some plants do the same to protect themselves. describe, among other things: - the occurrence and distribution of this class of naturally occurring organic compounds their chemistry, classification and representative structures their biological/medicinal/pharmacological properties and other benefits to humankind.arrow_forward
- The compound acetophenone has a very similar molar mass to that of benzoic acid and benzamide. However, acetophenone has a much lower m.p. (20 °C) than both such that, by contrast, it is a liquid at room temperature. By considering intermolecular forces and comparing functional group structure, account for this big difference in physical properties.arrow_forwardC) a nitrile D) an amine nitrite salt DIRECTIONS: Each of the following questions or incomplete statements below is followed by four suggested answers lettered A - D.
