Interpretation:
The results which are obtained after the reinvestigation of the corresponding reaction are to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The replacement or substitution of one functional group with another different functional group in any chemical reaction is termed as substitution reaction. In nucleophilic substitution reaction, nucleophile takes the position of leaving group by attacking on the electron deficient carbon atom.

- Suggest a reason why the nitroso group, -N=O, is ortho-para directing whereas the nitro group, -NO2, is meta directing.arrow_forward3) Outline an acceptable step by step mechanism for the Nucleophilic aromatic substitution of ortho-fluoronitrobenzene with methylamine. Do not forget to include the formal charges of all non-hydrogen atoms that do not have a neutral charge.arrow_forwardA student was given from the list of the compounds below A, B and D blindly and asked to identify them all. He treated each of them with Brady's reagent (2,4-ditrophenylhydrazine) and isolated a bright yellow compound for one of them, but the other two gave false negatives. The student reasoned that the false negatives may be due to sterics and, on further thinking, it dawned on him that he might be able to rule out one of the false negatives with the haloform test. What compound did he find compatible with the haloform test? That compound did indeed give a false negative in the Brady test. Which of the other two was positive in the Brady test? A = haloform B = Brady A = haloform D = Brady B = haloform A = Brady B = haloform D = Brady D = haloform A = Brady D = haloform B = Bradyarrow_forward
- Suggest reactivity of compound A, B and C in increasing order of E2 reactionarrow_forwardDepending on the reaction conditions, two different imines of formula C8H9N mightbe formed by the reaction of benzaldehyde with methylamine. Explain, and give thestructures of the two imines.arrow_forwardgive explanation in detailarrow_forward
- Are compounds a and b potential products of the reaction - why?arrow_forwardGive the structure of the following compound(a) isobutyl bromidearrow_forward. Discuss the truth of the following statement. Explain why it is true or false Every SN1 reaction produces racemic mixtures in the productsarrow_forward
- Provide a mechanism for the following reaction and rationalise the reactivity in terms of the 3 dimensional structure of the starting material and a consideration of the appropriate orbital interactions.arrow_forwardExplain why the hydrolysis of [Co(NH3)5Cl]2+ in the presence of base muchfaster than that of [Co(py)5Cl]2+? Illustrate your answer with suitable diagrams.arrow_forwardPropanal and propanone react in a similar way with acidified aqueous potassium cyanide, KCN. For this reaction to occur reasonably quickly, the pH of the solution should be approximately 4. The reaction of propanal proceeds with acidified potassium cyanide proceeds more rapidly than that of propanone. Referring to the mechanism of the reactions, explain this phenomenon.arrow_forward
