Which of the following has highest boiling point?
a)
(C2H5)2NH
b)
C2H5N(CH3)2
c)
C2H5NH(CH3)2
d)
n-C4H9NH2
|
Krishna Iyer answered |
The correct answer is Option D.
Because C4H9NH2 is primary amine and can form hydrogen bonding more than secondary amine (C2H5)2NH and tertiary amine C2H5N(CH3)2 . More hydrogen bonding leads to strong bonding between the molecules, hence increases the boiling point.

Hansa Sharma answered |
Fe + HCl is preferred due to the following reasons:
- Scrap iron i.e Fe is cheap and commercially easily available
- FeCl2 formed will get hydrolysed and release HCl, so, HCl which is required in the reaction will be produced by itself
- Hence only small amount of HCl is required to initiate the reaction.

The reaction is a Mendius reaction as because in this reaction the organic nitrile is reduced by nascent hydrogen(from sodium in ethanol) to a primary amine. (RCN+2H2=RCH2NH2).
where as LiAlH4 is a strong reducing agent and can be used as an abstract source of H neucophile.

b)
Nitrogen in pyridine is sp2 hybridized.
c)

d)

Om Desai answered |
Basicity of amines is due to availability of an unshared pair (lone pair) of electrons on nitrogen. This lone pair of electrons is available for the formation of a new bond with a proton or Lewis acid. Pyridine is less basic than triethylamine because lone pair of nitrogen in pyridine is delocalised.

Riya Banerjee answered |
The correct answer is Option A.
Aromatic Primary amine will form the most stable diazonium salt because it releases water when it reacts with nitronium ions. If aliphatic primary amine reacts with nitrosonium ion it Also releases water but in this case water reacts with alkyl diazonium salt and it forms alcohol while benzene diazonium salt does not react with water at this temperature.

**Benzene diazonium chloride**
Benzene diazonium chloride (C6H5N2Cl) is an organic compound that is commonly used in diazotization reactions. It is formed by the reaction of aniline (C6H5NH2) with nitrous acid (HNO2) in the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl).
**Reaction with Phenol**
When benzene diazonium chloride reacts with phenol (C6H5OH) in a weakly basic medium, it undergoes a substitution reaction known as the Sandmeyer reaction. This reaction involves the replacement of the diazonium group (-N2Cl) with the phenolic group (-OH) to form a new compound.
**Formation of p-Hydroxyazobenzene**
The reaction between benzene diazonium chloride and phenol results in the formation of p-hydroxyazobenzene (C12H10N2O), which is the correct answer (option A).
The reaction proceeds as follows:
1. The weakly basic medium provides the necessary conditions for the reaction to occur. It helps in the deprotonation of phenol to form the phenoxide ion (C6H5O-).
2. The diazonium group of benzene diazonium chloride is highly reactive and undergoes nucleophilic substitution. The nitrogen atom of the diazonium group attacks the phenoxide ion, leading to the formation of a new carbon-nitrogen bond.
3. The chlorine atom attached to the nitrogen atom is replaced by the phenoxide group, resulting in the formation of p-hydroxyazobenzene.
The reaction can be represented by the following equation:
C6H5N2Cl + C6H5O- → C12H10N2O + Cl-
**Explanation of Other Options**
Option B: Benzenedoes not participate in the reaction. It remains unchanged.
Option C: Diphenyl ether is not formed in this reaction. It involves the formation of a carbon-oxygen bond between two phenyl groups, which is not observed in the given reaction.
Option D: Chlorobenzene is not formed in this reaction. The chlorine atom from the diazonium chloride is replaced by the phenoxide group, not by another chlorine atom.
Thus, the correct answer is option A: p-Hydroxyazobenzene.
Benzene diazonium chloride (C6H5N2Cl) is an organic compound that is commonly used in diazotization reactions. It is formed by the reaction of aniline (C6H5NH2) with nitrous acid (HNO2) in the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl).

3. The chlorine atom attached to the nitrogen atom is replaced by the phenoxide group, resulting in the formation of p-hydroxyazobenzene.
The reaction can be represented by the following equation:
C6H5N2Cl + C6H5O- → C12H10N2O + Cl-
**Explanation of Other Options**
Option B: Benzenedoes not participate in the reaction. It remains unchanged.
Option C: Diphenyl ether is not formed in this reaction. It involves the formation of a carbon-oxygen bond between two phenyl groups, which is not observed in the given reaction.
Option D: Chlorobenzene is not formed in this reaction. The chlorine atom from the diazonium chloride is replaced by the phenoxide group, not by another chlorine atom.
Thus, the correct answer is option A: p-Hydroxyazobenzene.

Amita Das answered |
The N in ammonia functions as the nucleophile and attacks the electrophilic C of the alkyl halide displacing the bromide and creating the new C-N bond.
Step 2: An acid/base reaction. The base (excess ammonia) deprotonates the positive N (ammonium) center creating the alkylation product, the primary amine.

Acrylonitrile is an organic compound with the formula CH2CHCN. It is a colorless volatile liquid, although commercial samples can be yellow due to impurities. In terms of its molecular structure, it consists of a vinyl group linked to a nitrile. It is an important monomer for the manufacture of useful plastics such as polyacrylonitrile. It is reactive and toxic at low doses. Acrylonitrile was first synthesized by the French chemist Charles Moureu (1863–1929) in 1893.

Formation of Aryl Nitrile from Diazonium Salts
Diazonium salts are compounds containing a positively charged nitrogen atom that is linked to an aromatic ring. These salts are often used in organic synthesis as a source of the aryl group. When treated with cuprous cyanide or KCN and copper powder, diazonium salts undergo a reaction known as Sandmeyer reaction, which forms aryl nitriles.
Reaction Mechanism
The reaction mechanism involves several steps:
1. Formation of Copper(I) Salt
First, cuprous cyanide or KCN is added to the diazonium salt solution to form a copper(I) salt. The copper(I) salt plays a crucial role in the reaction by catalyzing the formation of the aryl nitrile.
2. Formation of Aryl Copper(I) Intermediate
Next, copper powder is added to the reaction mixture, which reduces the copper(I) salt to copper metal. The copper metal then reacts with the diazonium salt to form an aryl copper(I) intermediate.
3. Formation of Aryl Cyanide
The aryl copper(I) intermediate then reacts with the cyanide ion from the cuprous cyanide or KCN to form the aryl cyanide. The reaction releases copper metal, which can then react with more diazonium salt to form more aryl copper(I) intermediate.
Overall Reaction
The overall reaction can be represented as follows:
ArN2+X- + CuCN/KCN → [CuX] + N2 + ArCu + HX
ArCu + CN- → ArCN + Cu
Where Ar represents the aryl group, X represents the anion of the diazonium salt, and HX represents the acid formed in the reaction.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the treatment of diazonium salts with cuprous cyanide or KCN and copper powder forms aryl nitriles through the Sandmeyer reaction. This reaction is an important method for the synthesis of aryl nitriles, which have a variety of applications in organic synthesis and industry.
