Answer:
Here's what I get
Explanation:
You may have done a Williamson synthesis of guaifenesin by reacting guaiacol with 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol.
A. Mechanism
Step 1
NaOH converts guaiacol into a phenoxide ion.
Step 2
The phenoxide acts as the nucleophile in an SN2 reaction to displace the Cl from the alkyl halide.
B. Improve the yield
You probably carried out the reaction in ethanol solution — a polar protic solvent.
You might try doing the reaction in a polar aprotic solvent— perhaps DMSO.
A polar aprotic solvent does not hydrogen bond to nucleophiles, so they become stronger.
C. Another method of ether synthesis —dehydration of alcohols
Sulfuric acid catalyzes the conversion of primary alcohols to ethers.
This is also a nucleophilic displacement reaction.
Protonation of the OH converts it into a better leaving group.
Attack by a second molecule of alcohol forms the protonated ether.
A molecule of water then removes the proton.
Answer:
Explanation:
Structure of the 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-pentanone is give in the attachment
In 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-pentanone, no alpha hydrogen is present, therefore, enol form is not possible and hence, exist only in keto form.
Explanation for existence of cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one only in enol form:
keto form of cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one not aromatic and hence less stable.
Whereas enol form it is aromatic which makes it highly stable. that's why cyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-one exists only in enol form.
Answer:
v = 534.5mL
m = 597.15g
Density = 9.23g/mL
Density = 9.125g/mL
Explanation:
Density = mass/ volume
For the first question
Density = 1.59g/mL
Mass = 834.01g
Volume = ?
Using the above formula we have 1.59 = 834.01/v
v = 834.01/1.59
v = 534.5mL
For the second question
Density =0.9167g/mL
Volume = 651.41mL
Mass =?
Using the above formula we have
0.9167 =m/651.41
Cross multiply
m = 0.9167 x 651.41
m = 597.15g
For the third question
Mass =803.44g
Volume=87.03mL
Density =?
Density = 803.44/87.03
= 9.23g/mL
For the fourth
Density = 56.85/6.23
= 9.125g/mL
Answer: La Ferrassie 1
Explanation: La Ferrassie 1, often referred to as LF1, is a male Neanderthal skeleton estimated to be 70–50,000 years old. It was discovered at the La Ferrassie site in France by Louis Capitan and Denis Peyrony in 1909. The skull is the most complete Neanderthal skull ever found.
