- describe how the following conversions could be carried out. In each case give reagents and conditions of the reactions and the structures of the products. a) CH2=CH2 -> CH2 COOH b) ethanol -> 2hydroxypropanoic acidarrow_forwardDraw the structure of each product from the reaction of benzene with 2-chloro-1-methylcyclohexane using AlCl 3 as the catalyst and Identify the major product.arrow_forwardAccount for the fact that treating propenoic acid (acrylic acid) with HCl gives only 3-chloropropanoic acid.arrow_forward
- Several diamines are building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agro-chemicals. Show how both 1,3-propanediamine and 1,4-butanediamine can be prepared from acrylonitrile.arrow_forwardpotassium dichromate (Cr2O7^2-) oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid is the basis for the original breath-alcohol screening test used by law enforcement agencies to determine a person's blood alcohol content (BAC). the test is based on the difference in colour between the dichromate ion( redish orange) in the reagent and the chromium(iii) ion (green) in the product. deduce the reaction that is involved in this test and give the IUPAC name of the other product formed.arrow_forwardGive the structural formula of A, B & C Give the reagents and reaction conditions for the steps labelled v, x, w & yarrow_forward
- (CH3)2C=CHCH2CH3 and Ozone (o)3 /Zn product?arrow_forwardDraw the structure of the predominant form of CF3CH2OH (pK a = 12.4) at pH = 6.arrow_forwardAn organic compound S reacted with ozone to give compounds Q and R. Both Q and R react with NaOH/I2 to produce a yellow precipitate with antiseptic smell. Q reacts with HCN to produce the compound CH3C(CH3)OHCN while R gives a silver mirror with tollen's reagent. Write equations to show the reaction of Q with NaNO/I2 R with H+/Cr2O72-arrow_forward
- 2,4,6-Trinitrophenol is known by the common name picricacid. Picric acid is a solid but is readily soluble in water. Insolution, it is used as a biological tissue stain. As a solid,it is also known to be unstable and may explode. In thisway, it is similar to 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT). Draw thestructures of picric acid and TNT. Why is picric acid readily soluble in water, whereas TNT is not?arrow_forwardWhen bromine is added to two beakers, one containing phenyl isopropyl ether and the other containing cyclohexene, the bromine color in both beakers disappears. What observation could you make while performing this test that would allow you to distinguish the alkene from the aryl ether?arrow_forwardAn unknown hydrocarbon Q has a formula C6H12. Q reacts with osmium tetroxide to give a diol R when oxidized with KMnQ4 in an acidic medium Q gives two products. One product is propanoic acid and the other is ketone S. Provide reaction equations to identify the possible structures of Q, R and S.arrow_forward
