What compound is formed when methyloxirane (1,2-epoxypropane) is reacted with ethylmagnesium bromide followed by treatment with

aqueous acid

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Pentan-2-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have a <u>Grignard reagent</u> (ethylmagnesium bromide), therefore we will have the production of a <u>carbanion</u> (step 1). Then this carbanion can <u>attack the least substituted carbon</u> in the epoxide in this case carbon 1 (step 2). In this step, the epoxide is open and a negative charge is generated in the oxygen. The next step, is the <u>treatment with aqueous acid</u>, when we add acid the <u>hydronium ion</u> (H^+)  would be produced, so in the reaction mechanism, we can put the hydronium ion. This ion would be <u>attacked by the negative charge</u> produced in the second step to produce the final molecule: <u>"Pentan-2-ol".</u>

See figure 1

Should a mortar and pestle should be used for grinding only one substance at a time
MatroZZZ [7]
The mortar and pestle is most commonly used in chemical laboratories or in the kitchen. Its key function is to grind the material into smaller pieces, usually into its powdered form. It looks like that shown in the picture. The mortar is the bowl in which the material to be pounded is placed, and the pestle does the pounding.

Now, when you ask if it can only pound one at a time, my honest answer is, it depends. Depending on the size of your mortar, you could grind materials two or three at a time. But if you are concerned with contamination, then you do it one at a time, especially if you don't want them to get mixed up.

Why is it that the decomposition of nitroglycerin can result in so
patriot [66]

Answer:

with the molecular formula C3H5(ONO2)3, has a high nitrogen content (18.5 percent) and contains sufficient oxygen atoms to oxidize the carbon and hydrogen atoms while nitrogen is being liberated, so that it is one of the most powerful explosives known.

Explanation:

NTG reduces preload via venous dilation, and achieves modest afterload reduction via arterial dilation. These effects result in decreased myocardial oxygen demand. In addition, NTG induces coronary vasodilation, thereby increasing oxygen delivery.
