What is a halogen carrier

- AlX3, FeX3 where X is a halogen and it is a catalyst for the halogenation of arenes. They produce strong + electrophile which is needed as benzene is stable

Explain the bromination of a benzene ( electrophilic substitution)

- Benzene and BR2 heated under reflux - with AlCL3, ALBR3 as halogen carriers - Bromobezene and HBR is formed

Explain the alkylation reaction

- Benzene reacts with alkyl group like CH3CL to make methylbenzene and HCL - Use ALCL3 as catalyst

Explain the combustion of benzene

- Burn with oxygen - water and CO2 formed - Smokey flame because carbon-to-hyrogen ratio - soot is formed - orange flame

Where can you find phenols naturally

- Crude oil

How did IR data contradict Kekules structure

- Cyclohexene has a peak of an isolated alkene c=c - however benzene has a peak which is typical of an aromatic C=C

Describe and explain the reactivity of bromine with cylcohezene and benzene

- Cyclohexene is electrophilic addition C6H10 + Br2 ---> C6H10Br2 - Benzene is electrophilic substitution C6H6 ----> C6H5Br + Br - using a halogen carrier - Benzene is more stable - electron density in benzene is lower

What are the two scientists that are associated with benzene + halogen carriers

- Frieda - Crafts

Where can you find benzene naturally

- In crude oil

Explain how x- ray diffraction contradicted Kekules structure

- It showed that the bond length in benzene are all the same - However C=C are shorter then C-c - Using X ray diffraction we see that the bond length is an intermediate between the length of the double and single bond

Why is the benzene have a higher boiling temp than ethanol

- London forces between benzene molecules are stronger than the hydrogen bonds between the ethanol molcules

Why does phenol solid at room temp and slightly soluble in water

- OH group is polar - it can take part in hydrogen bonding - phenol molecules attract each other strongly and so has a mp higher then room temp - it can also form hydrogen bonds with water

Explain the new correct model of benzene

- Pi bonds are formed by an overlap of P orbitals - each carbon has 1 electron in the P orbital - One large pi bond is formed with 6 electrons shared across the "cloud" - these are all delocalized -

What are some used for phenols

- TCP antiseptic - polymer

Explain why there are 3 isomers of Dibromobenzene and not 4

- This is because it showed that the bonds between all the carbon atoms are the same and not some c-c and others C=c

Explain the hydrogenation of benzene

- addition reaction - heat under pressure - nickel catalyst neeed - Circle leaves as all single bonds

Explain the acylation reaction

- benzene group react with acyl group like ethanoyl chloride to make a ketone (phenylethanone) and HCL - using ALCL3 catalyst -

What is TCP

- chlorination of phenol - it known as antiseptics

Explain the nitration of benzene

- electrophilic substation - NO2+ is the electrophile - react Conc nitric acid and sulfur acid to make No2+ H2SO4 + HNO3 ---> HS04- + H2NO3+ ( not stable ) H2NO3+ ----> NO2+ + H20 - This reaction is very exothermic so multiple NO2+ will react so they is why is should be cooler temp - Nitrobenzene and water formed

What happens when you react the Phenol with acyl chloride

- ester and HCL formed - if you react it with ethyl ethanoate you will make phenyl ethanoate )

Why should the nitration of benzene kept between 50-60

- if its to high dinitrobenzene or trinitrobenzene will form - if too low the reaction is to slow

How does phenol react differently with bromine then benzene and explain

- it delcolourses bromine and white ppt forms. at room temp with no catalyst - phenol is weaker because lone pair of electron sin p orbital of oxygen interacts with delocalized pi bonds in the ring - so electron density has increase through a process called activation because molecules now more reactive towards electrophile - br-br is polarized by benzene so Br+ formed - White ppt is 2,4,6 tripbromophenol as br2 reacts 3 times as the reaction happens more readily then benzene

What are some physics properties of benzene ( color, solubility, nature)

- it is colorless - insoluble in water - toxic and a carcinogen ( causes cancer)

Why phenol are more reactive then benzene with Br

- lone pair of electrons from the oxygen - increase the electron density on the ring - make It more susceptible to electrophilic attack

What do you name benzene ring with NH2

- phenyl amine

How can you test for phenol

- react with FeCL3 it will turn purple is phenol

Explain the sulfonation reaction

- replace H on benzene with -SO3H - React with fuming sulfuric acid ( dissolve SO3 with conc sulfuric acid ) - temp at 40 C - water and benzenesulfonic acid is made

Explain why Benzene doesn't decolouriose bromine water

- this is because it is more stable - all pie bonds are delocalised - It forms HBR and Bromobenzene with AlBR3/FeBR3

Why benzene molecule is planar?

- trigonal planar -bonded at 120 -joined by pi bonds

Why should conditions be anhydrous for the friedel-crafts reactions

- water will react with catalyst or sometimes the organic product

How did thermochemical data contradict Kekules structure

-Enthalpy change of hydrogenation theoretically is much larger more exothermic - this shows that the bonds are 'weaker then the c=c bonds ' - This is also because bond length is an intermediate length

Why all c-c bond sin benzene the same length

-pi electrons are delocalized - in resonance - electrons are evenly distributed

Mechanism of Bromination of Benzene

1: Formation of Electrophile AlBR3 + Br2------> Br+ AlBr4- 2: Electrophilic attack Curley arrow from circle to Br+ 3: Formation of aromatic product bromo bezene and H+ formed 4: regeneration of catalyst AlBr4- + H+ ------> AlBr3 + HB4

Mechanism for the alkylation of benzene

1: Formation of Electrophile AlCL3 + CH3Cl ---> CH3+ + AlCl4- 2: Electrophilic attack Curley arrow from circle to the electrophile 3: Formation of aromatic product Methyl benzene and H+ formed 4: regeneration of catalyst AlCl4- + H+ ----> AlCl3 + HCl

Mechanism for the acylation of benzene

1: Formation of Electrophile AlCl3 + CH3COCL ---> CH3CO+ + AlCL4- 2: Electrophilic attack Curley arrow from circle to the electrophile 3: Formation of aromatic product Phenylethanone formed and H+ 4: regeneration of catalyst AlCl4- + H+ -----> AlCl3 + HCL

Mechanism for Nitration of benzene

1: Formation of Electrophile HNO3+H2S04 ---->NO2+ +HSO4- + H20 OR HNO3+H2SO4---> HS04- + H2NO3+ H2NO3+ ----> NO2+ + H20 2: Electrophilic attack Curley arrow from ring to electrophile 3: Formation of aromatic product Nitrobenzene formed 4: regeneration of catalyst HS04- + H+ ----> H2SO4

What are the 5 problems with Kekules structure of benzene. Outline

1: it does not declourlise bromine water 2. There is 3 isomers if Dibromo benzene and not 4 3. X- ray diffraction shows bond length as intermediate 4. Thermochemical data shows enthalpy of hydrogenation is smaller 5.Infra red shows different absorption pattern
