Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 5


Phenolic — OH does not undergo further substituton. 

Test: Ethers - Question 6

Inorganic salts are usually insoluble in organic solvents e.g, KMnO4 is insoluble in benzene. However presence of one of the following compound in benzene makes KMnO4 soluble and gives a purple coloured solution. Which is that compound?

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 6
  • KMnO4 is insoluble in benzene due to its ionic nature, which doesn't mix with non-polar solvents.
  • However, crown ethers (represented by option B) can encapsulate cations like K, forming a complex.
  • This complexation allows KMnO4 to dissolve in benzene by disrupting its ionic lattice.
  • Crown ethers have a cavity that fits certain ions, promoting solvation in non-polar environments.
  • Thus, the presence of a crown ether in benzene facilitates the solubility of KMnO4, giving a purple solution.

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Ethers - Question 8

One or More than One Options Correct Type

Direction (Q. Nos. 8 -13) This section contains 6 multiple choice questions. Each question has four choices (a), (b), (c) and (d), out of which ONE or MORE THAN ONE are correct

Consider the following reaction,

Q. The expected substitution product(s) is/are

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 8

Reaction proceeds by SN1 mechanism.


Above carbocations give the desired products.

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Ethers - Question 9

Which of the following ethers can be obtained in good yield by intermolecular dehydration of alcohols ?

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 9
  • The intermolecular dehydration of alcohols to form ethers is typically successful with primary alcohols. This reaction is known as the Williamson Ether Synthesis.
  • Option A: Symmetrical ethers like diethyl ether (from ethanol) are formed easily by intermolecular dehydration of primary alcohols.
  • Option B and D: These involve secondary or tertiary alcohols, which tend to undergo elimination to form alkenes instead.
  • Option C: Contains a bulky ether, making it less favorable for this synthesis.
  • Correct answer: A.
*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Ethers - Question 10

If diethyl ether is left in contact of air for long time, the product formed is/are

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 10

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Ethers - Question 11

In which of the following reaction, the major product is an acyclic ether ?

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 11

(a) (CH3)2SO4 brings about methylation of alcohol giving ether.
(b) Diazomethane reacts with alcohol to form methyl ether.

(c) Primary alcohols on heating with conc. H2SO4 at 140°C undergo intermolecular dehydration giving ether.

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Ethers - Question 12

 Consider the following reaction,

The correct statement(s) concerning the above transformation is/are

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 12

(a) Reaction does not involves breaking of bonds to chiral carbon, hence retention of configuration.
(b) With TsCI, — OTs is formed with retention of configuration . Subsequent reaction with CH3ONa involves SN2 reaction, hence inversion of configuration takes place.
(c) With conc. H2SO4 , alkene is formed. Alkene in the next step reacts via carbocation intermediate, hence racemic product is obtained.
(d) Racemic mixture would be obtained.

*Multiple options can be correct
Test: Ethers - Question 13

Consider the following reaction,

The correct statement regarding the above reaction is/are

Detailed Solution for Test: Ethers - Question 13

(a) The first s te p involves protonation at forming carbocation rather than oxonium ion.
(c) Final product formation involves nucleophlic attack at carbocation , racemic product would be formed.
