(R)-2-bromooctane undergoes alkaline hydrolysis to yield (S)-2-octanol. Predict the stereochemistry (inversion or retention) of the reaction. |
|
Answer» Solution :`##CHY_CHE_ORG_XII_P2_U10_E01_073_S01.png" width="80%"> Inversion of CONFIGURATION occurs. |
|
| 6. |
(R)-2-Bromooctane reacts with hydrogen sulphide (HS^(-)) ion and gives (S)-2-octanethiol with inversion of configuration at the stereocentre. Can we plan to get (R)-2-octanethiol from (R)-2-bromooctane? |
Answer» Solution :(R)-2-octanethiol can be OBTAINED from (R)-2-bromooctane by DOUBLE inversion to GET net retention of configuration. For EXAMPLE, an `S_(N)2` reaction with `I^(-)` ion would give (S)-2-io- dooctane. Then, it is reacted with HS-to give (R)-2-octanethiol.

| 7. |
(R)-2-Bromooctane reacts with NaSH to form (S)-2-octanethiol with inversion of configuration at the stereocentre. How cann we obtain (R)-2-octanethiol from (R)-2-bromoctane? |
Answer» Solution :We know that `S_(N)2` reactions proceeds with inversion of configuration at the STEREOCENTRE. If however, two `S_(N)2` reactions are carried out at the same stereocentre of a compound, retention of configuration will OCCUR. Thus, (R)-2-octanethiol can be obtained from (R)-2-bromooctane by first reacting it with NaI in ACETONE and then with NASH in ethanol.

Quinones are good electron acceptors, party because reduction restores aromaticity. Q+2e^(-)+2H^(o+)rarr H_(2)Q Give the decreasing order of E^(c-)._(reduction) of the following quinones : |
|
Answer» Solution :`a.` Decreasing order or `E^(c-)._(reduction):` `IIIgtIgtII` `b. IIIgtIIgtI""c.IIgtI` `a.` After reduction, products are `:` Reactivity order `: IIgtIgtIII` Stability order `: IIIgtIgtII` `III`is more stable due to `+R(` or `+M)` effect of `Cl` than `+I` and `H.C.` effect of `CH_(3)`. More stable the product means FASTER the reduction of quinone to hydroquinone and therefore higher `E^(c-)._(red)` value `:.` Decreasing order of `E^(c-)._(red)` value in `(a): IIIgtIgtII.` `b.` Stability order `: IgtIIgtIII` Reactivity order `: IIIgtIIgtI` `(III)` is more easily reducedt to because it generates two aromatic rings which have more resonance energy and greater stability than the reaction of `(I)` and `(II)`, which would generate only one benzene ring. Both `(I)` and `(II)` on reduction GIVE one benzene ring, but `(II)` is less stable `(` more reactive `)` than `I` because adjacent `(C=O)` groups in `(II)` make it less stable . The reaction is representes as follows `:` `Q+2H^(o+)+2e^(-) rarr H_(2)O` `:.` Reduction potential `(E^(c-)._(Q|H_(2)O)):IIgtI` . `c.` Stability order `: IgtII` Reactivity order `: IIgtI` Standard reduction potential `(E^(c-)._(Q|H_(2)O)):IIgtI` `(I)` has two individual benzene rings whose combined resonance energy along with that ot two `(C=O)` groups is more than the resonance energy of three benzene rings of reduced product `(I_(1))`. |

Pyrolusite is the main ore of manganese in which it is present asIts Mn content is determined by reducing it under acidic condition to Mn^(2+)with the help of oxalate (C_(2)O_(4)^(2-)) ion which in turn gets oxidized to CO_(2) The analytical determination is carried out by adding a known excess volume of (C_(2)O_(4)^(2-)) solution to a suspension of the pyrolusite and digesting the mixture on a hot water bath until all the MnO_(2) has been reduced. The excess unreacted oxalate solution is then titrated with standardized KMnO_(4) solution. Thereby Mn content of ore can be calculated. KMnO_(4)solution is also standardized under acidic condition against oxalate ion wherein MnO_(4)^(-) ion is reduced to Mn^(2+) and (C_(2)O_(4)^(2-)) ion is oxidized to CO_(2)Qsample containing MnO_(2)is treated with HCl liberating Cl_(2) The Cl_(2) is passed into a solution of KI and 30cm^(3) ofhypo is required to titrate the liberated iodine.
