Chapter 23, Problem 21P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The compounds A and B are to be identified in the given reaction.

Concept introduction:

Phenols contain hydroxyl (OH) functional group attached to an aromatic ring.

Phenols undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction due to the presence of the hydroxyl group that activates itself towards electrophilic substitution. The hydroxyl group causes the resonance effect due to which the ortho and para positions of phenol ring become electron rich.

o - Nitroaniline is more soluble in ethanol than p - nitroaniline. Propose a scheme by which a pure sample of o-nitroaniline might be obtained from this reaction
Compound EE, C5H10O gives a positive result (formation of silver mirror) when reacted with Tollen’s reagent. Reduction of EE with sodiumborohydride, NaBH4 followed by acidified water, H3O+ produces compound FF. Dehydration of compound FF uses concentrated sulphuric acid, H2SO4 at a temperature of 180°C produces compound GG. Compound FF also reacts with hot acidified potassium dichromate, K2Cr2O7 to produce 2-methylbutanoic acid, C4H9COOH. Esterification between 2-methylbutanoic acid and methanol, CH3OH produces compound HH. Draw the structural formula of compounds EE, FF, GG, and HH.
