The exact mechanism of this reaction is a little complicated, as it involves the copper ions. However, the process involves the

formation of small amounts of bromine in situ. Draw the mechanism of the bromination of 4-tert-butyl phenol with Br2. -g

Answer:

see picture below

Explanation:

The mechanism is in the following picture.

In the first step, the lone pair of oxygen (from the OH) as it's a strong activating group in the molecule, will go to the ring. This will cause that the double bond of the ring of the ortho position, attacks as nucleophyle to the Br2, causing the breaking of the bond.

In the second step, the bromine ion substract the hydrogen from the ortho position, and then, by resonance, the pair of electrons returns to the oxygen of the phenol.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Use the activity formula,  

T1/2 = 4.468 x 10^9 yr x 365 x 24 x 3600 = 1.409 x 10^17 sec  

l = ln(2)/T1/2 = ln(2)/1.409 x 10^17 = 4.91932697 x 10^-18 s-1  

DN/Dt = lN, 265 = 4.91932697 x 10^-18 x N  

<u><em>N = 5.38 x 10^19 nuclei</em></u>

worty [1.4K]
While most constellations are only visible to us in different seasons, some are always there 24/7/365 because they are positioned close to the Polar Axis, or the Polaris.

If the conjugate base of a molecule has a pkb of 1.4, what would you expect the molecule to be?
maw [93]

If the conjugate base of a molecule has a pKb of 1.4, the molecule should be a Weak Acid.

Notice this question gives us the pKb of the molecule, not the pKa. Because of this, the pH scale basically gets reversed, so lower numbers in pKb correlate with stronger bases, and higher numbers in pKb correlate with stronger acids - the exact opposite of the pH scale.

It's important to make sure you completely understand the terms of conjugate base, conjugate acid, pKb, pKa, and how they all relate. It's easy to mix up the meanings of these definitions.

Here are the two other pieces of information you need to know to correctly answer this question:

  • Strong acids have a weak conjugate base.
  • Strong bases have a weak conjugate acid.

So if the problem says you have a strong conjugate base, then the molecule must be a weak acid. To illustrate this, think of ammonium, NH4+. Ammonium is a weak acid, but the conjugate base of ammonium is ammonia, NH3, which is a reasonably good base.
