Write a mechanism for the formation of triphenylmethanol from the reaction of phenylmagnesium bromide and diethyl carbonate..

Chemistry

My name is Ann [436]2 years ago
5 0

The reaction  proceeds through nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction.

Phenyl magnesium bromide substitutes one ethoxide ion in the nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction that drives the process forward. A subsequent equivalent of phenyl magnesium bromide produces triphenyl methanol through a nucleophilic addition reaction with the resultant keto group.

There are two ethoxy leaving groups in diethyl carbonate. Tertiary alcohol is created when diethyl carbonate combines with too much Grignard reagent. The Grignard reagent attacks the carbonyl carbon three times in the mechanism to produce the tertiary alcohol.

The mechanism is shown below:

During a laboratory experiment, 36.12 grams of Aboz was formed when O2 reacted with aluminum metal at 280.0 K and 1.4 atm. What
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

8.70 liters

Explanation:

  • 3O₂+ 4Al → 2AI₂O₃

First we <u>convert 36.12 g of AI₂O₃ into moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 36.12 g ÷ 101.96 g/mol = 0.354 mol AI₂O₃

Then we <u>convert AI₂O₃ moles into O₂ moles</u>, using the stoichiometric coefficients of the reaction:

  • 0.354 mol AI₂O₃ * \frac{3molO_2}{2molAl_2O_3} = 0.531 mol O₂

We can now use the <em>PV=nRT equation</em> to <u>calculate the volume</u>, V:

  • 1.4 atm * V = 0.531 mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 280.0 K
  • V = 8.708 L

Air trapped in a cylinder fitted with a piston occupies 145 mL at 1.08 atm
pav-90 [236]

Answer: 0.0014 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Original pressure of air (P1) = 1.08 atm

Original volume of air (T1) = 145mL

[Convert 145mL to liters

If 1000mL = 1l

145mL = 145/1000 = 0.145L]

New volume of air (V2) = 111L

New pressure of air (P2) = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is held constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

1.08 atm x 0.145L = P2 x 111L

0.1566 atm•L = 111L•P2

Divide both sides by 111L

0.1566 atm•L/111L = 111L•P2/111L

0.0014 atm = P2

Thus, the new pressure of air when the volume is decreased to 111 L is 0.0014 atm

Considering the temperature vs. time graph below, how does the temperature at the beginning of a change of state
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The temperature is always lower.

Explanation:

The temperature is always lower at the end of the state as compared to beginning of the state. We can see in the given data, the temperature is higher at the beginning i. e. 140 degree Celsius but with the passage of time, the temperature of a state decreases constantly  and the temperature at the end is lower i. e. 20 degree Celsius. So we can conclude that the temperature is always lower.

A rectangular fence is 3 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 60ft. Find the dimensions of the fence
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The length of the fence is 22.5ft and the width of the fence is 7.5ft.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will turn this question into an equation.

The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l + 2w = perimeter.

In the question we were given the perimeter so we can go ahead and plug this in.

2l + 2w = 60

In the question we are also told that the fence is 3 times as long as it is wide. This means that 1l = 3w. We can now subsitute l for 3w so that we only have one variable.

2(3w) + 2w = 60

Now we can simply use algebra to solve for w.

6w + 2w = 60

8w = 60

w = 7.5

Now that we know the value of w we can find the value of l since we know 1l = 3w.

l = 3w

l = 3(7.5)

l = 22.5

The length of the fence is 22.5ft and the width of the fence is 7.5ft.
