Chapter 28, Problem 28.55AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The hydrocarbon B and the intermediate A (both with the formulas C11H10) in the following reaction sequence is to be identified. Compound B is formed spontaneously from A in a pericyclic reaction.

EBK ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 28, Problem 28.55AP

Concept introduction:

Commonly, electrocyclic reactions are a pericyclic reaction which occur intramolecularly. These reactions will result in the formation of ring compounds under the influence of heat or light. Notably, in this process one new sigma bond is formed and one old π-bond is consumed. Intriguingly, the reverse ring opening electrocyclic reaction can also be possible to occur under the same reaction mechanism but in reverse manner.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The proton NMR spectrum of B consists of a complex absorption at δ 7.1 (8H) and a singlet at δ (-0.5) (2H).The negative absorption for protons is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

The usage of nuclear magnetic resonance in NMR spectroscopy of hydron nuclei is termed as proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This is used to determine the structure of molecules with respect to 1H found within the molecules. In order to avoid the interference from solvent molecules, the analysis of 1H spectra is usually carried out in deuterated solvents such as D2O, CDCl3, DMSO-d6.Besides, tetramethyl silane is used as an internal standard.

(a) How will you convert:(i) Benzene to acetophenone                 (ii) Propanone to 2-Methylpropan-2-ol(b) Give reasons :(i) Electrophilic substitution in benzoic acid takes place at meta position.(ii) Carboxylic acids are higher boiling liquids than aldehydes, ketones and alcohols of comparable molecular masses.(iii) Propanal is more reactive than propanone in nucleophilic addition reactions.
Please give the main substitution product for each of the following reactions, and indicate the dominant mechanism:      (a)     1-bromopropane   +   NaOCH3   →      (b)     3-bromo-3-methylpentane   +   NaOC2H5   →
A compound (C7H14O) has a strong peak in its IR spectrum at 1710 cm–1. Its 1H NMR spectrum consists of three singlets in the ratio 9:3:2 at δ 1.0, 2.1, and 2.3, respectively. Identify the compound.
