- Write the products of the reaction and indicate if what is formed is a meso compound or a racemic mixture. cold, KMNO4, KOH water solvent Ph. Ph Ph Ph 1. МСРВА, СН,CI, solvent 2. KOH, water /THF solventarrow_forwardWill the bonding of the Zn2+ ion to the ketone oxygen lone pair make theketone C=O easier or more difficult to reduce? Why?arrow_forwardMost of the pKa values given in this text were determined in water. How would the pKa values of carboxylic acids, alcohols, ammonium ions (RN+H3) , phenol, and an anilinium ion (C6H5N+H3) + change if they were determined in a solvent less polar than waterarrow_forward

Propose a reason for the difference and why this resonance is shifted more than the others.arrow_forwardChemistry what is the mechanism of the reaction between amine and dimethyl acetal (DMFDMA) in methanol? why does the reaction occur at high temperatures?arrow_forwardA hard acid makes the most stable complexes with а. soft bases b. soft acids С. hard bases d. hard acidsarrow_forward
- Draw structures of aniline and cyclohexylamine and use appropriate factors to compare their basicity. Explain why AICI3 is a stronger Lewis acid than Al(CH3)3arrow_forward3. cyclohexanone to cyclohexane. A second year chemistry student is assigned a task to prepare compound 2 from compound 1 using lithium aluminium hydride as a reducing agent. However, from the reaction mixture, no traces of product 2 were detected. Explain this observation in detail and suggest an alternative route that will lead to product 2. H 1 CH3 LiAllH4 H O: 2 CH3 quearrow_forwardAldehydes can be determined indirectly by atomic absorption. The aldehyde is oxidized with the Ag+ ion producing 2 moles of Ag for every mole of the aldehyde. Silver dissolves and is determined by atomic absorption. When examining a liquor, 50 mL were subjected to the treatment, the metallic silver was separated and dissolved, making the resulting solution 20 mL for its reading. A 10 ppm Ag solution was examined under the same conditions; The readings obtained were: 0.423 and 0.242 for the standard and the sample respectively. Assuming full adherence to Beer's Law, calculate the mg of acetaldehyde in 100 mL of liquor.arrow_forward
- Ferrocene is an aromatic organometallic compound that places an iron ion between two cyclopentadienyl anion rings. What is the charge on the iron ion?arrow_forwardThe pKa values of a few ortho-, meta-, and para-substituted benzoic acids are shown below: The relative pKa values depend on the substituent. For chloro-substituted benzoic acids, the ortho isomer is the most acidic and the para isomer is the least acidic; for nitro-substituted benzoic acids, the ortho isomer is the most acidic and the meta isomer is the least acidic; and for amino-substituted benzoic acids, the meta isomer is the most acidic and the ortho isomer is the least acidic. Explain these relative acidities.a. Cl: ortho 7 meta 7 para b. NO2: ortho 7 para 7 meta c. NH2: meta 7 para 7 orthoarrow_forwardPhthalimide is insoluble in water.
