- (a) Give chemical tests to distinguish between(i) Propanal and Propanone, (ii) Benzaldehyde and Acetophenone.(b) How would you obtain(i) But-2-enal from Ethanal, (ii) Butanoic acid from Butanol,(iii) Benzoic acid from Ethylbenzene?arrow_forwardWhat is going on from compound B to compound C? Can you please select all the options that applyarrow_forwardThis question concerns adrenalin which is a hormone, a chemical messenger which stimulates the central nervous system. It's structure is shown below. It has a number of functional groups. What is a functional group? Identify and name the functional groups. Give the reagents and reaction conditions that establish the presence of any TWO of the functional groups present in adrenalinarrow_forward
- Hello, The answer to the second question was incorrect. "You have incorrectly provided the IUPAC name. For the common name of disubstituted benzene compounds, the relative position of the substituents must be defined using the terminology ortho-, meta-, para-." Could you please try again? Thank you!arrow_forwardGiven that your mixture containing benzoic acid and aminobenzene dissolved in n-hexane solvent. Suggest a method on how to separate these two substances. Available reagents: A. Hydrochloric acid B. Sodium hydroxide C. Distilled water D. n-hexanearrow_forwardChemistry Please answer the following two questions. 1.) Why are functional group interconversions controversial? (double bonds into epoxide) 2.) Explain the clincal trials that happen for epoxide containing moleculesarrow_forward
- Biphenyl has the following structure.(a) Is biphenyl a (fused) polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon?(b) How many pi electrons are there in the two aromatic rings of biphenyl? How does this number compare with that for naphthalene?(c) The heat of hydrogenation for biphenyl is about 418 kJ>mol (100 kcal>mol). Calculate theresonance energy of biphenyl.(d) Compare the resonance energy of biphenyl with that of naphthalene and with that of two benzene rings. Explain thedifference in the resonance energies of naphthalene and biphenyl.arrow_forwardThe amines are organic weak bases which are nitrogen-containing. In the early days of organic chemistry, basic amines derived from natural sources were known as “vegetable alkali”, but they are now referred to as alkaloids. The study of alkaloids provided much of the growth of organic chemistry, phytochemistry and natural products chemistry. It remains a fascinating area of research. Please search for one naturally occurring alkaloid and provide the following: Name of the alkaloid and show its structure. Identify using arrows the polar bonds in the structure Species from where it was isolated What was the use of this alkaloid in plants (if any)? What are the pharmacological, medicinal, or environmental uses or applications of this alkaloid (if any)?arrow_forwardThe compound acetophenone has a very similar molar mass to that of benzoic acid and benzamide. However, acetophenone has a much lower m.p. (20 °C) than both such that, by contrast, it is a liquid at room temperature. By considering intermolecular forces and comparing functional group structure, account for this big difference in physical properties.arrow_forward
- Write reactions of ethyl chloride with the following reagents: a. KOH, aqueous solution b. NaCNarrow_forward(a) Give chemical tests to distinguish between the following pairs of compounds :(i) Ethanal and Propanal (ii) Phenol and Benzoic acid(b) How will you bring about the following conversions?(i) Benzoic acid to benzaldehyde (ii) Ethanal to but-2-enal (iii) Propanone to propeneGive complete reaction in each case.arrow_forwardAn unknown hydrocarbon A with the formula C6H12 reacts with 1 molar equivalent ofH2 over a palladium catalyst. Hydrocarbon A also reacts with OsO4 to give diol B. When oxidized with KMnO4 in acidic solution, A gives two fragments. One fragmentis propanoic acid, CH3CH2CO2H, and the other fragment is ketone C. What are thestructures of A, B, and C? Write all reactions and show your reasoning.arrow_forward
