lb CHEM 204.101 1. what "the correct name for following OK b. 1-oxohexanoie acid d. 4-o%hexanoic acid 2. What is the order of increasing acidity for the following compounds? (least to most) Explain. COOH COOH CHy b. III, II, IV.I d. l,ll,IV, 111 3. Choose the best reagent(s) for carrying out the following conversions from the list below. Place the letter corresponding to the best choice in the blank to the left of the conversion. a. KMnO,H,O b. CHyl & 1. Mg ether 2. CO 3. Ho c. NaBH, ethano h. 1. NaCN 2. H,SO4, Ha, heat 2. H,o e. 1. CH,MgBr, ether i. Os, then Zn and HOAc 2. HO

Explanation / Answer

1) Name of the compound : 5-oxohexanoic acid

2) Correct order is : III < II < I < IV

If electron with drawing groups(NO2, Cl) on ring then acidity of benzoic acid increases.

If electron releasing groups (CH3, OH, NH2) on ring then acidity decreases.

4) Answer is : d) nitrile.

Nitrile (CN) is not a acyl(COCH3) derivative of carboxylic acid.

5) Answer : a) carbon atom with three bonds to an electronegative atom.
