Worksheet #1 CHEM 109C - Lewis 1. For the two compounds below, determine which will undergo nucleophilic aromatic substitution more rapidly. N Cl N Cl vs Explain the reason for your selection. You may use structures as part of your explanation. 2. A student was working on the following problem on their first quiz: Predict the product for the reaction below and explain your reasoning: They suggested the above answer and gave the following explanation: We are adding a nitro group to the benzene ring. Nitro groups are meta directing so we add it to the meta position. Do you agree with their answer? Why or why not? 3. Explain why an amine is an activating group and ortho/para director while a nitro group is deactivating and a meta director. NH 2 NO 2 activating o/p directing deactivating meta directing 4. Select the appropriate reagents, in the correct order, to complete the following synthesis. Make sure to include workups if necessary. ? HO O Br Possible Reagents 1. HBr, heat 2. H 2 NNH 2 , HO - , heat 3. AlCl 3 , CH 3 Cl 4. Br 2 , FeBr 3 5. CH 3 COCl, AlCl 3 6. H 2 O 7. H 2 CrO 4 , heat 8. Br 2
