Why is the OH stretch so broad?

Because of extensive hydrogen bonding.

Why are aldehydes more reactive than ketones?

Because of sterics and electronic factors. The nucleophile has more room to attack the carbonyl on an aldehyde because it only has one Ch3 in comparison to the ketone, which has 2. Carbonyl is more polarized in aldehydes, therefore they are more reactive.

What is a meso compound?

Chiral centers that offset one another due to symmetry. The net result is an optically inactive compound. In essence, meso compounds are actually a chiral. They can be identified by finding a plane of symmetry that divides the compound into two mirror images. In bromination of stilbene, this is the product when cis-stilbene is the starting material.

What does the number of signals on an NMR tell us?

How many non-equivalent H are present.

How do we use IR to decide if we need to do distillation in the preparation of cyclohexene experiment?

If we see the OH stretch, then we need to distill again because it is an indicator that there is still some OH products (impurities) within the product. (Remember yield is lower if you distill again)

What is anhydrous ether?

It is a very strong base and will react with substances that are protonated (water). Another reason why we need dry glassware for the grinyard experiment.

What is sodium acetate used for the lidocaine experiment?

It is used to react with the HCl left over after acylation. If we leave the HCl there, it can protonate the amine, and it will not be able to attach the carbonyl carbon.

What is the role of sulfuric acid in the nitration mechanism?

It makes OH on the nitrate a better leaving group (water) by protonating it.

What is HCl used for in the lidocaine experiment?

It's added to the filtrate while in the separatory funnel. (I couldn't figure out why we used it, but I think it was just for separating the layers/extraction purposes.)

What is the final product after alkylation?

Lidocaine

What is the final product after the lidocaine is treated with H2SO4 in anhydrous ethanol?

Lidocaine bisulfate

What is the starting material in the preparation of t-butyl chloride experiment?

50/50 mixture of two enantiomers. In terms of the bromination experiment, it is what results when trans stilbene is the starting product.

What is the product if phenyl magnesium bromide reacts with water? (grinyard)

A benzene. This is what we do not want and is why we had to ensure the glassware was extremely dry for the Grinyard experiment.

What is an aprotic solvent?

Solvent that contains no H atoms connected directly to an electronegative atom. If a solvent is aprotic, then SN2 reaction will occur.

What is the chemical equation for lidocaine synthesis?

Steps: (1) acylation (2) alkylation (3) formation of the salt

Why may a carbonyl stretch be shifted?

The effect pf the conjugated bond, there is an electron withdrawing effect. Resonance can also lower the wave number of the carbonyl, because the bond becomes weaker.

Which molecule in the synthesis of dibenzaldehyde mechanism serves as the initial enolate?

The ketone

What is the relationship between mass and wavenumber?

The lighter the atom, the larger the wavenumber.

What happens if there is only one mole of the benzaldehyde present?

The molecule will look like the dibenzaldehyde cut in half. The reaction would not go further than the formation of the second enolate.

What does deshielded mean?

The nucleus of the atom is experiencing a stronger magnetic field, and therefore will appear downfield in the NMR.

What does shielded mean?

The nucleus of the atom is experiencing a weaker magnetic field, and therefore will appear upfield on the NMR.

What happens when the sample size is too large for melting point determination?

The sample will require more energy to melt it and the temperature range will broaden. This results int eh sample being falsely labeled as an impurity. Sample size must be 2-3 mL up the ca

To reduce the hypochlorite. (** idk what it is reduced to ??)

What happens when we do a mixed reaction with aldehydes and ketones in which both have alpha hydrogens?

We get a mix of 4 final products. This is not favorable for aldol reactions. To remedy this, we have to ensure at least one of the two have no alpha hydrogens.

Why do we was the product in the preparation of cyclohexene experiment?

We use NaCl to "salt out" the product. It pushes out the unwanted substances so all we collect is the pure product.
