Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The curved-arrow mechanism for the conversion of benzenesulfonic acid into benzene and H2SO4 with hot water is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The replacement of hydrogen atom attached to a carbon atom of electron-rich benzene ring by another electrophile is known as electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. Some electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions are reversible in nature they convert back the product electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions into its reactant.

4) Write the reaction between cyclohexanecarboxylic acid and thionyl chloride showing all three products (two gaseous and one liquid). Take the liquid product and treat it with 2 moles of dimethylamine in benzene as the solvent. You get two products. What are they? Draw their formulae and write their names.
1) The carbon-oxygen double bond present in aldehydes and ketones is very polar. What does this mean and how does it arise? 2) The carbon-oxygen double bond is readily attacked by nucleophiles like cyanide ions or ammonia.           (i) What do you understand by the term nucleophile?           (ii) Which part of the carbon-oxygen double bond is attractive to nucleophiles? 3) Why is there a difference between aldehydes and ketones in their response to oxidizing agents such as potassium dichromate(VI) solution acidified with dilute sulfuric acid?
