Question

What is the best choice of reagent to achieve the following transformation? SOCl2 NaCl HCl Cl2, light What is the major organic product obtained from the following sequence of reactions? racemic 2-ethyl 1-methylbutyl ether 2-ethyl (S)-1-methylbutyl ether 2-ethyl (R)-1-methylbutyl ether (R)-3-methylhexanol What is the major organic product obtained from the following reaction? 1 -butene, CH3CH2CH=CH2 butanal, CH2CH2CH2CHO butanoic acid, CH3CH2CH2CO2H butanone, CH3CH2COCH3 Refer to acidity ranking. 1-2-3-4 1-4-3-2 2-3-4-1 1-4-2-3 2-3-1-4

Explanation / Answer

1. a, SOCl2 becoz for all other rearrangement products will occur for NaCl no rxn 2.(d) (R)-3-methylhexanol O- produced will form double bond and kick out CH2CH2O- 3.OH gets removed resulting in formation of a Carbocation which gets shifted to central atom followed by OH attack and removal of H from OH to form double bond 4. Phenolic group are acidic and CN increses the acidic nature but CH3 group decreases (-I effect) hence ans B
