Resonance, nucleophiles Organic 1 For the following, provide short answers: a. Provide resonant structures for the...
Predict the relative order of reactivity of the indicated carbonyl compounds in reactions with nucleophiles (1 = most reactive carbonyl electrophile). Use all three logic arguments of organic chemistry (resonance, inductive and steric). Show structures, lone pairs and arrow-pushing conventions in your answer to provide an explanation for your order of reactivity. Write the expected product in a reaction with lithium aluminium deuteride, LiAlD4, followed by workup (no mechanisms) Name 2. Predict the relative order of reactivity of the indicated...
5. Resonance provides the basis for a large portion of organic chemistry and helps us identify sites of high and low electron density. We will see that the electron source (nucleophile) is attracted to the site of electron sinks or deficiency (electrophile). For the following, draw the curved arrow that shows the movement of electrons that takes you from one resonance structure to the other. Remember to always start your arrow at the source of electrons (r-bond or lone pair)....
2) Rank the nucleophiles given below based on high, mediocre, and low nucleophilicity and reason why based on their structures. HO-CH3, H2N-CH3, KO-CH3, KO-C(CH3)3 Introduction Alkyl halides can be prepared from alcohols by reactions with hydrogen halides (HCI, HBr, or HI) via nucleophilic substitution. In this type of reaction, the nucleophile displaces a leaving group from a carbon atom of an organic substrate (here the alcohol once protonated). Both electrons of the new bond to the carbon are provided by...
draw organic structures for the following Organic acids and bases, to the extent that they are relatively non-polar, may be only sparingly soluble in polar water. Benzoic acid, as a predominantly non-polar molecule, is expected to be more soluble in non- polar ether than in water. Benzoic acid, however, can be chemically manipulated to benzoate ion, thus greatly increasing its solubility in water. Since it is an acid, it will react with a base like NAOH (aq) according to the...
Please provide explainations for your answers. Thanks! 1. Draw 3 contributing resonance structures of the molecule shown. OCH H2N OCH3 A B Which structure do you suppose contributes most? Why? 2. Provide the IUPAC name for the molecule shown below. Br IUPAC name: Ph 3. Draw the 6 Newman projections for the molecule shown, looking down the C(2)-C(3) bond. Circle the Newman projection that you think would be most stable. Use the table of gauche interactions to determine your answer...
Thionyl chloride (SOCI,) is used to make novacaine. SOCI, has two resonance structures, one with a single bond between S and O and one with a double bond between S and O. 1. What is the central atom in this molecule? Explain your answer in 1-2 sentences. a. b. Draw the two resonance structures and assign a formal charge to each atom. Which of the two structures do you think contributes more to the resonance hybrid? Explain your answer in...
1. Draw all the significant resonance forms for the following structures, and indicate which are major and which are minor, or if you have two equally important forms, say so. The number of new forms you need to draw is shown in parentheses below the arrow. (a) N co 4. In each of the following reactions, indicate which structure is the nucleophile and which is the electrophile. Also draw the products (use the electron pair arrows to guide you). (a)...

Use resonance forms to identify the site(8) on cach molecule that would be attracted to an atom with a negative charge. i) 1
9. Which of the following statements is FALSE of electrophiles and nucleophiles? A) Anionic molecules tend to be nuclophiles, and cationic molecules tend to be electrophiles B) It is possible for the same molecule to act as an electrophile in some reactions, and a nucleophile in other reactions C) Carbocations are very strong electrophiles D) It is possible for a weak nuclophile to participate in a reaction E) Typically, a double headed curved arrow will move towards a nucleophile 10....
