Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The hybridization of carbon atoms of triple bonds is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Hybridization is the combination of two or more atomic orbitals to form the same number of hybrid orbitals, each having the same shape and energy. Number of groups around the atom is equal to number of the number of orbitals hybridized to give hybrid atomic orbitals.
(b)
Interpretation: The type of orbital in which the pi electrons of the triple bond resides is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Hybridization is the combination of two or more atomic orbitals to form the same number of hybrid orbitals, each having the same shape and energy. Number of groups around the atom is equal to number of the number of orbitals hybridized to give hybrid atomic orbitals.
(c)
Interpretation: The number of pi electrons that are delocalized in compound A is to be determined.
Concept introduction: A molecule must be cyclic, planar, completely conjugated and should follow

- Compound X (molecular formula C10H12O) was treated with NH2NH2,−OH to yield compound Y (molecular formula C10H14). Based on the 1H NMR spectra of X and Y given below, what are the structures of X and Y?arrow_forwardCyclopropenones are described as having aromatic character. How would you account for this, given that the ring contains three π-electrons?arrow_forward(a) Structure A shown below is a badly drawn organic molecule HO- CH3 COOH H A Explain, with reference to orbital hybridisation, why structure A is incorrect. Draw a correct representation of the structure. (i) (ii) Give the IUPAC name for structure A and show how you determined it.arrow_forward
- Compound A is an aromatic compound with the molecular formula C8H8. When treated with excess BR2, compound A is converted into compound B, with the molecular formula C8H8BR2. Draw the structure of compound a. arrow_forwardDraw and identity thr hybridized atoms (sp/sp2), draw reaonance structures/ polar bonds, and acidic hydrogens and basic positions for the compound Omeprazole.arrow_forward1.

- Compounds A and B have molecular formula C9H10O. Identify their structures from the 1H NMR and IR spectra given.arrow_forwardThe compound MON-0585 is a non-toxic, biodegradable larvicide that is highly selective against mosquito larvae. Synthesize MON-0585 using either benzene or phenol as a source of the aromatic rings.arrow_forwardHow many rings and π(pi) bonds are contained in compound A and draw one possible structure for this compound A. Compound A has molecular formula C6H10 and is hydrogenated to a compound having molecular formula C6H12arrow_forward
- Compound X has the formula C30H50BRCIO2. (There are no triple bonds in X.) It reacts with excess H2 over Pd to give C30H56BrCIO2. Compound X has RINGS and DOUBLE BONDS in it. Separate your answers with a comma.arrow_forwardAcridine is a heterocyclic aromatic compound obtained from coal tar that is used in the synthesis of dyes. The molecular formula of acridine is C13H9N, and its ring system is analogous to that of anthracene except that one CH group has been replaced by N. The two most stable resonance structures of acridine are equivalent to each other, and both contain a pyridine-like structural unit. Write a structural formula for acridine.arrow_forwardCiprofloxacin is a member of the fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics.(a) Which of its rings are aromatic?(b) Which nitrogen atoms are basic?(c) Which protons would you expect to appear between d 6 and d 8 in the proton NMR spectrum?arrow_forward
