- In each of the following reactions, two possible organic products can be formed. Draw both organic products in each case and then circle the one formed in greatest quantity in each case. HC (a) 1) NaH, 2) acid (b) CH,CH,OH (c) CH,CH,OH NH2 (d) Oarrow_forwardGive reasons for the following :(i) Phenol is more acidic than methanol.(ii) The C—O—H bond angle in alcohols is slightly less than the tetrahedral angle (190°28′).(iii) (CH3)3C—O—CH3 on reaction with HI gives (CH3)3C—I and CH3—OH as the main products and not (CH3)3C—OH and CH3—I.arrow_forward(a) How will you convert:(i) Benzene to acetophenone (ii) Propanone to 2-Methylpropan-2-ol(b) Give reasons :(i) Electrophilic substitution in benzoic acid takes place at meta position.(ii) Carboxylic acids are higher boiling liquids than aldehydes, ketones and alcohols of comparable molecular masses.(iii) Propanal is more reactive than propanone in nucleophilic addition reactions.arrow_forward
- Identify which of the statements is/are correct. (i) The molecular formula of the smallest aldehyde is C3H6O, and that of the smallest ketone is also C3H6O. (j) The molecular formula of the smallest carboxylic acid is C2H4O2.arrow_forward(c) Arrange the following compounds in order of increasing acidity, and explain the reasons for your choice of order: phenol, cyclohexanol, 2-fluorocyclohexanol, 2-fluorophenol.arrow_forward(b) (i) The reaction between aromatic compound W, C,H$OC1 with an amine X, CH>N was carried out. The compound Y was extracted and purified from this reaction. It was then reduced by LİAIH4 followed by hydrolysis to obtain compound Z, which is a tertiary amine. Draw the structures for compounds W, X, Y and Z.arrow_forward
- Draw structures corresponding to the following names: (a) 3-hydroxyhexanoic acid (b) 2-iodo-2-methyloctanoic acid (c) 2-butynoic acid (d) 5-ethyl-6-oxoheptanoic acid (e) o-Hydroxybenzoic acid (f) cis-3-isopropylcyclohexanecarboxylic acidarrow_forwardEach member of the following set of compounds is an amine; that is, each contains a nitrogen bonded to one, two, or three carbon groups. Which structural formulas represent the same compound, and which represent constitutional isomers?arrow_forward(a) A hydrocarbon isolated from fish oil and from plankton was identified as 2,6,10,14-tetramethyl-2-pentadecene. Write its structure.(b) Alkyl isothiocyanates are compounds of the type RN C S. Write a structural formula for allyl isothiocyanate, a pungent-smelling compound isolated from mustard.(c) Grandisol is one component of the sex attractant of the boll weevil. Write a structural formula for grandisol given that R in the structure shown is an isopropenyl group.arrow_forward
