electrophilic aromatic substitution

an electrophile replaces a proton (H) on the aromatic ring (a benzene ring i.e.)

how do diastereotopic molecules look on NMR?

due to their nonequivalence, diastereotopic groups often display different chemical shifts and hence are represented by different NMR signals

lucas test

for water-soluble alcohols only lucas reagent - conc. HCl:Zn2Cl2 1:1 distinguishes between primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols based on the rate of formation of the insoluble alkyl chloride primary = do not react secondary = react within 5-10 minutes tertiary = react within seconds, immediate emulsion CLOUDY SOLUTION = POSITIVE

alkaline iron(III) hydroxylamate test

hydroxylamine hydrochloride, 20% NaOH, heat to boiling point, add HCl and solid iron(III) chloride tests for esters (sometimes phenols) positive test = red-blue magenta color some phenols react to give similar colors; if you have a (+) test, perform all steps except addition of hydroxylamine; if you still have color, your unknown is a phenol

how to tell if molecule is diastereoptic

if the molecule already has a stereogenic center, and by replacing an R group with Cl makes creates a new stereogenic center, then the molecule is diastereotopic

preliminary examination

removes excess N,N'-diisopropylethylene diamine

mass spectra

reveals the molar mass of a compound molecules with an odd number of atoms have odd molar masses but those with even number of N's (including zero) have even molar masses the molar mass of a compound combined with combustion analysis can reveal the molecular formular of a compound

what tests can you use to determine if the functional group is a carboxylic acid?

soluble in both 5% NaHCO3 (with CO2 gas evolution) and 5% NaOH

2,4-DNP test

tests for aldehydes and ketones positive test = formation of vibrant yellow, orange, or red precipitate esters and alcohols DO NOT react: the yellow-orange color of reagent will persist and no precipitate

what happens if the temperature rises

the nitronium ion will be very reactive and will add ortho, para, and meta -- selectivity is diminished

why do you pour organic product over ice

the organic product is insoluble in water, so when added over ice, it precipitates out

what happens if the reaction is stirred to quickly

the solid reagents will go to the walls, where they will stick and not react

iron(III) chloride

water or water-ethanol (for water-insoluble phenols), 10% iron(III) chloride solution tests for phenols positive test = red, blue, green, or purple color sterically hindered phenols will have negative result

what is combustion

when an organic compound containing C, H, and O is burned, it produces CO2 and H2O

nitration

cerium (IV) nitrate (ceric ammonium nitrate) test

acetone, cerium(IV) nitrate reagent tests for alcohols and phenols (distinguishes alcohols from esters and other neutral compounds) positive test = change in color of the reagent from yellow to orange-red negative test = esters, ketones, carboxylic acids, and simple aldehydes DO NOT change the color of the reagent

how is the nitronium ion generated

acid-base reaction between concentrated H2SO4 and concentrated HNO3 HNO3 acts as the base H2SO4 acts as the acid
