What is the balanced chemical equation for the aromatic bromination of Acetanilide using green reagents Sodium Bromide, Bleach, Acetic Acid, and Ethanol?arrow_forwardTyramine is an alkaloid found in mistletoe and ripe cheese. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of the central nervous system. a. How can tyramine be prepared from β-phenylethylamine?b. How can dopamine be prepared from tyramine?c. Give two ways to prepare β-phenylethylamine from β-phenylethyl chloride.d. How can β-phenylethylamine be prepared from benzyl chloride?e. How can β-phenylethylamine be prepared from benzaldehyde?arrow_forwardp-toluic acid is prepared from 3.42 grams of p-Bromotoluene. When p-Bromotoluene was mixed with dry ether, the mixture was warmed until the ether begins to boil (34.6 °C). When the reaction is almost complete, dry ice (3-4 mL in a beaker) was prepared and the mixture was poured into it. After some time, 5 mL of 6 N HCl was added. The solvent used for the recrystallization is 100 mL of 30% ethanol. The reaction equation is given on the figure. What is the actual yield? What is the theoretical yield? How many moles of p-toluic acid was produced?arrow_forward
- a-phellandrene and ß-phellandrene are two isomeric diene-containing terpene compounds isolated from eucalyptus plants that are used in fragrances due to their minty and citrusy odors. Use these two compounds to answer the following two questions: a. The addition of 1 equivalent of bromine at room temperature to the phellandrenes will give three possible di-brominated products. Select either a- or ß-phellandrene for this question and draw it in the left box - you can answer this question with either isomer. Draw all three products in the colored boxes depicted - you do not need to depict newly formed stereocenters or show mechanisms. OR a-phellandrene B-phellandrene product 1 select either a- or B-phellandrene product 2 Br₂ room temperature 3 possible products (see below) product 3arrow_forward5. Butylated hydroxy toluene (BHT) is an anti-oxidant added to many food products (e.g. breakfast cereals) to increase their shelf-life. BHT is synthesized from p-cresol by reaction with 2-methylpropene in the presence of phosphoric acid. a) What is the structure of BHT ? b) Account for the regioselectivity of tert-butyl group substitution in the synthesis of BHT. c) Propose a mechanism to explain the formation of the electrophile in the synthesis of BHT.arrow_forwardWhy is methyl salicylate so easily absorbed through the skin?arrow_forward
