Answer:
The given statement- Aldehydes and ketones are converted into alkenes by means of a direct nucleophilic addition called the Wittig reaction, is<u> True.</u>
Explanation:
The Wittig reaction converts aldehydes and ketones into alkenes through a simple nucleophilic addition. A triphenylphosphorine ylide, also known as a phosphorane, reacts with an aldehyde/ketone to produce an oxaphosphetane, a four-membered cyclic intermediate. Instead of being isolated, the oxaphosphetane decomposes spontaneously to release triphenylphosphine oxide and an alkene.
In an SN2 reaction, triphenylphosphine, a good nucleophile, reacts with a primary alkyl halide, followed by deprotonation of the carbon with a solid base, such as butyllithium, to form the ylide. In the product alkene, the carbonyl carbon and the carbon initially bound to the halogen become two carbons with a double bond.
The Wittig reaction's true worth lies in its ability to produce an alkene with a predictable structure, as the C=C bond forms exactly where the C=O bond did in the reactant, with no isomers (other than E/Z isomers) forming.
<u>Hence , the correct option is (A) True.</u>
it is 6, all isotopes of carbon have 6 electrons and 6 protons which is why its atomic number is 6
A because dormant volcanoes are volcanoes that have not erupted in a long time but are expected to erupt again in the future
Answer: The Note
Explanation: Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemical substances that transmits signals through a NEUROMUSCULAR JUNCTIONS.
The signals are transmit from one NERVE CELL TO THE TARGET POINT such as Muscle cell,gland cell etc. Neurotransmissiom require the presence of synapse(the structure or medium through which neurosignals which can be an electrical or chemical signals to pass through).
Nothing is less dense than gas. gas is the least dense form of matter.
