Concept explainers

Diol

In chemistry there are so many chemical compounds that have a hydroxyl group but a chemical compound having two hydroxyl groups (-OH) is termed as a diol. It also implies the presence of two alcohols whereas polyols contain two or more than two hydroxyl groups (-OH). Glycol or 1,2-diol is an aliphatic diol that has two alcohol groups on adjacent carbon atoms. In industries, the most commonly used diol is ethylene glycol.

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.

Compounds A, B, and C have the same molecular formula C4H8. They all react wotu H2/PtO2 to give the same compound. The reaction of A or B with H2O/H2SO4 or with BH3-THF, followed by treatment with a basic solution of hydrogen peroxide, gives the same compound, namely D. The reaction of C with H2O/H2SO4 also gives D. However, the reaction of C with BH3-THF, followed by HO-, H2O2 gives a new compound, E. Provide the identity of A, B, C, D, and E along with explanations of reactivity.
Like alcohols, ethers undergo a cleavage by breaking a carbon–carbon bond between an alkyl group and the carbon bonded to the ether oxygen atom; that is, the red C–C bond in R–CH2OR' is broken. With this in mind, propose structures for the fragments formed by a cleavage of (CH3)2CHCH2OCH2CH3. Suggest a reason why an ether fragments by acleavage.
