- Explain the following behaviours :(i) Alcohols are more soluble in water than the hydrocarbons of comparable molecular masses.(ii) Ortho-nitrophenol is more acidic than ortho-methoxyphenol.arrow_forwardDescribe the characteristic infrared absorption frequencies that would allow you to distinguish between the following pairs of compounds. (a) cyclohex-2-enone and cyclohex-3-enone (b) cyclohexanol and cyclohexanonearrow_forward(a) The Friedel-Crafts reaction of benzene with 2-chloro-3-methylbutane in the presence of AlCl3 occurs with a carbocation rearrangement. Give mechanistic explanation and the product formed. (b) Predict the product(s) will be formed from the following reactions: (i) Bromination of p-methylbenzoic acid (ii) Sulphonation of m-bromoanisole (iii) Friedel-craft acylation of o-bromonitrobenzenearrow_forward
- Compound C has the molecular formula C5H8O. The IR, 1H, 13C, and DEPT NMR spectra of this compound are shown below. (a) Calculate the double bond equivalent of compound C and briefly explain what the values obtains represents. Interpret the IR spectrum. (b) Based on the information provided, determine the structure of compound D.arrow_forward(a) Account for the following :(i) Propanal is more reactive than propanone towards nucleophilic reagents.(ii) Electrophilic substitution in benzoic acid takes place at meta position.(iii) Carboxylic acids do not give characteristic reactions of carbonyl group.(b) Give simple chemical test to distinguish between the following pairs of compounds:(i) Acetophenone and benzaldehyde(ii) Benzoic acid and ethylbenzoate.arrow_forward(c) A series of dialkyl ethers react with excess hydrogen bromide, with the following results. Analyze the ether in each case and write out the complete chemical equations. (1) Ether gives a mixture of bromocyclopentane and 1-bromoethane. (ii) Another ether gives one mole of 1,5-dibromopentane per mole of ether.arrow_forward
- (a) Give a plausible explanation for each one of the following :(i) There are two – NH2 groups in semicarbazide. However, only one such group is involved in the formation of semicarbazones.(ii) Cyclohexanone forms cyanohydrin in good yield but 2, 4, 6-trimethylcyclohexanone does not.(b) An organic compound with molecular formula C9H10O forms 2, 4, – DNP derivative, reduces Tollens’ reagent and undergoes Cannizzaro’s reaction. On vigorous oxidation it gives 1, 2-benzene-di- carboxylic acid. Identify the compound.arrow_forwardExplain the following observations :(i) The boiling point of ethanol is higher than that of methoxymethane.(ii) Phenol is more acidic than ethanol.(iii) o- and p-nitrophenols are more acidic than phenol.arrow_forwardGive reasons: (i) Bond length of C = O in carboxylic acids is slightly larger than C = O bond length in carbonyl compounds. (ii) There are two –NH2 groups in semicarbazide. However, only one –NH2 group is involved in the formation of semicarbazones. (iii) Benzoic acid is less soluble in water than acetic acid. (iv) Formic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid.arrow_forward
