Acid-catalyzed dehydration of neopentyl alcohol, (CH3)3CCH2OH, yields 2-methyl-2- butene as the major product. Outline a mechanism showing all steps in its formation.
The nitroso group, −N=O, is one of the few nonhalogens that is an ortho- and para-directing deactivator. Explain this behaviour by drawing resonance structures of the
carbocation intermediates in ortho, meta, and para electrophilic reaction onnitrosobenzene, C6H5−N=O.
Give reasons for the following:
(i) p-nitrophenol is more acidic than p-methylphenol.
(ii) Bond length of C—O bond in phenol is shorter than that in methanol.
(iii) (CH3)3C—Br on reaction with sodium methoxide (Na+ _OCH3) gives alkene as the main product and not an ether.

- 10. M and N are amines with the molecular formula C3H»N. Reaction of M with sodium nitrite and HCI releases nitrogen gas and produces a mixture of X and Y and Propanol while N produces a yellowish oily compound, S when reacted with the same reagents. Give the structures of M, N, X, Y, and S. Outline the synthesis of M from a suitable alkene.arrow_forwardAlkynes do not react directly with aqueous acid as do alkenes, but will do so in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate as a Lewis acid catalyst. The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.

Attempts to prepare a similar mixture of these same isomeric products (propylthiocyanate and propylisothiocyanate) starting from 1-propene is illustrated below. Despite the strong acidity of thiocyanic acid (recall pKa = 1.1), this addition reaction does not lead to either of the products indicated. Based on your knowledge of alkene addition reactions, explain this experimental result.arrow_forward

Isoerythrogenic acid, C18H26O2, is an acetylenic fatty acid that turns a vivid blue on exposure to UV light. On Catalytic hydrogenation over a palladium catalyst, five molar equivalents of hydrogen are absorbed, and stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16CO2H, is produced. Ozonolysis of isoerythrogenic acid yields the following products: formaldehyde, CH2O, malonic acid, HO2CCH2CO2H, adipic acid, HO2C(CH2)4CO2H, and the aldehyde carboxylic acid, OHC(CH2)6CO2H.
