(b)
Interpretation: A stepwise sequence that converts given alkyl halide to carboxylic acid is to be stated by the use to suitable method.
Concept introduction: The replacement or substitution of one functional group with another different functional group in any chemical reaction is termed as substitution reaction. The electron rich chemical species that contains negative charge or lone pair of electrons are known as nucleophile. In nucleophilc acyl substitution reaction, nucleophile takes the position of leaving group.

- The product in this reaction is basic enough to be protonated by a dilute HCl solution. Draw the protonated species, clearly showing where protonation occurs. Draw all possible resonance structures of the conjugate acid of the product, and use these to explain why the product is so much more basic than a typical ester, like ethyl acetate.arrow_forwardExplain why the nitrogen in an amide is not a good nucleophile. Use a picture to show whyarrow_forwardIn benzoic acid, when it has a deactivating group in position "para" (relative to carboxylate position) , it attracts electrons towards it, weakening the acid and an activator pushes the electrons making the acid stronger.What happens to this benzoic acid if it has a substituent at the "meta" or "ortho" position as an activator or a deactivator? I need an explanation of what happens in each case pleasearrow_forward
- Indicate which of the ff. statements regarding nucleophilicity is incorrect. a. Second row elements are more nucleophilic than first row elements of comparable basicity. b. F- is more nucleophilic, hence, more reactive towards methyl iodide than Cl-. c. The rate of SN2 reaction may be markedly affected by the nucleophilicity of the attacking atom. d. Nucleophilicity is the affinity of a nucleophile to an electrophilic carbon.arrow_forwardIn the presence of excess base and excess halogen, a methyl ketone is converted to a carboxylate ion. The reaction is known as the haloform reaction because one of the products is haloform (chloroform, bromoform, or iodoform). Before spectroscopy became a routine analytical tool, the haloform reaction served as a test for methyl ketones: the formation of iodoform, a bright yellow compound, signaled that a methyl ketone was present. Why do only methyl ketones form a haloform?arrow_forward
