Interpretation:
The preparation method of para-nitro benzoic acid from cumene (isopropyl benzene) is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The chemical reaction in which an electrophile group is replaced by another functional group is known as the electrophilic substitution reaction. When the electrophilic substitution happens on an aromatic ring such as benzene then the reaction is known as electrophilic aromatic substitution.
Answer to Problem 17.28AP
The preparation method of para-nitro benzoic acid from cumene (isopropyl benzene) is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
As alkyl group is ortho and para directing, so, both the derivatives are formed. The reaction of cumene with nitric acid results in the formation of ortho and para nitro-cumene. The para nitro cumene is further oxidized to p-nitro benzoic acid with potassium permangnate.
The corresponding reaction sequences to obtain the desired product are shown below.
