Experimental observations show that thiocyanate (SCN- ), the conjugate base of thiocyanic acid (pKa = 1.1 at 25 °C), is quite soluble in neutral water at pH > 2. In the space provided below, explain this experimental observation. That is, why does SCN– readily dissolve in water when the pH > 2?

1.Explain why pyridine ( Kb=2.3x10-9) is a much stronger base than pyrrole (Kb=2.5x10-14), 2.Explain and illustrate, why it is difficult to perfom Friedel-Craft reactions on unactivated pyridine.

Can you help with part b. Thank you!

Compound X is insoluble in cold KMnO4, Br2 in CCl4, and conc. H2SO4. Compound X is most likely: a. an alkane b. none of these c. an alkene d. an alcohol e. an alkyl halide   Indicate which of the ff. statements regarding nucleophilicity is incorrect. F- is more nucleophilic, hence, more reactive towards methyl iodide than Cl-. Second row elements are more nucleophilic than first row elements of comparable basicity. The rate of SN2 reaction may be markedly affected by the nucleophilicity of the attacking atom. Nucleophilicity is the affinity of a nucleophile to an electrophilic carbon     Which of the following alkynes can be deprotonated by NaNH2 in liquid NH3? 3-Methylhex-2-yne   Pent-2-yne   3-Methylbutyne   none of these   Hex-3-yne

Based on Steric Effect and Electron Delocalization Explain: 1. Phenol is not easily attacked by a positive reagent as aniline 2. Solubility of acetylinic compound in may bases   Please do answer all question for an upvote!! Thank you!

Using the information below explain why CN- is a stronger Bronsted base even though in the reaction given it is only 300 fold more nucleopihlic.

Give minor or major product?

Select one: True or False   1- In case of homo-binuclear covalent bond (of atoms of the same element) and hetero-binuclear covalent bond of very low electronegativity difference (as that between carbon and hydrogen), the bond is very strong and of no or minimum polarity hence not cleaves in water   2-In this compound complexation ( in the image )  is used for qualitative/quantitative identification of phenolic compounds where salicylic acid is chelated by the iron metal in ferric chloride to form water soluble violet color complex   3-Complexes are of different stability some are stable only in aqueous other are stable in both solid and solution however, for the maximum complex stability high metal anaionic charge, small transient metal atom radius and occupied d orbital are required.

I need help with this organic chemistry reaction. I can use clemmensen reaction I think. If not the other options I can use Raney-nickel reduction or catalytic hydrogenation or coupling reactions or heck or Suzuki reactions can i also have an explanation. I am feeling a bit lost
