1-Bromopropane is treated with each of the following reagents. Draw the major substitution product if the reaction proceeds in g
ood yield. If no reaction is expected or yields will be poor, draw the starting material in the box. If a charged product is formed, be sure to draw the counterion. a. with H_2 O
b. with H_2 SO_4
c. with 1 equiv of KOH
d. with Csl
e. with NaCN
f. with HCl
g. with (CH_3)_2 S
h. with 1 equiv of NH_3
j. with CI_2
k. with KF
If we look at the structure of 1-Bromopropane; we will see that it is a derivative of alkane family by the the substitution of an alkyl group. The position of the Bromine in the propane is 1, making 1-Bromopropane a primary alkyl-halide.
Primary alkyl - halide undergo SN2 mechanism. This nucleophilic reaction needs to be a strong alkyl halide , such as 1-Bromopropane used otherwise it will result to a reactive mechanism if a weak electrophile is used.
However, the critical and the main objective here is to Draw the major substitution product if the reaction proceeds in good yield. If no reaction is expected or yields will be poor, draw the starting material in the box. If a charged product is formed, be sure to draw the counterion.
The attached diagrams portraying this notions is shown in the attached file below.
The number of carbon atoms in an alcohol affects its solubility in water, as shown in Table 13.3. As the length of the carbon chain increases, the polar OH group becomes an ever smaller part of the molecule, and the molecule becomes more like a hydrocarbon. The solubility of the alcohol decreases correspondingly.
Assuming its at r. t.p and pressure no. of moles = 96/24=4moles altho some books will say that its 23.7dm3/mole but that doesnt really matter because its the process that matters
