To convert m-ethylaniline to m-ethylfluorobenzene, it should be treated with nitrous acid followed by _____________.

Chemistry

Answer:

NaBF_4

Explanation:

In this reaction, we must exchange the amino group (NH_2) for a fluorine atom (F). Also, the first step in this reaction is the addition of nitrous acid.

We must remember that the amino group in the presence of nitrous acid produces a diazonium salt. The N_2 group is a very good leaving group and many benzene derivatives can be produced from this intermediate (see figure 1).

If what we want is to bond a fluorine atom we must use NaBF_4 to be able to produce m-ethylfluorobenzene (see figure 2).

I hope it helps!

Atomic mass Ar => 39.948 a.m.u

39.948 g --------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
?? g -------------------- 3.8x10²⁴ atoms

(3.8x10²⁴) x 39.948 / 6.02x10²³ => 250 g
