51.
Molecules whose mirror image is non-superimposable over them are known as chiral. Which of the following molecules is chiral in nature?
No explanation is given for this question. Let's discuss the answer together.
53.
Tertiary alkyl halides are practically inert to substitution by $${S_N}2$$ mechanism because
A
the carbocation formed is unstable
B
there is steric hindrance
C
there is inductive effect
D
the rate of reaction is faster in $${S_N}2$$ mechanism
Answer :
there is steric hindrance
In tertiary alkyl halides steric hindrance does not allow substitution by $${S_N}2$$ mechanism in which the nudeophile attacks on the carbon atom and the reaction takes place in single step.
54.
A compound $$X$$ with molecular formula, $${C_7}{H_8}$$ is treated with $$C{l_2}$$ in presence of $$FeC{l_3}.$$ Which of the following compounds are formed during the reaction?
A
B
C
D
Answer :
55.
Consider the following anions.
When attached to $$s{p^3}$$ -hydridized carbon, their leaving group ability in nucleophilic substitution reaction decreases in the order :
A
I > II > III > IV
B
I > II > IV > III
C
IV > I > II > III
D
IV > III > II > I
Answer :
I > II > IV > III
56.
Which of the following is not an allylic halide?
A
4-Bromopent-2-ene
B
3-Bromo-2-methylbut-1-ene
C
1-Bromobut-2-ene
D
4-Bromobut-1-ene
Answer :
4-Bromobut-1-ene
Allylic halides are those compounds in which the halogen atoms is bonded to an $$s{p^3}$$ - hybridised carbon atom next to carbon-carbon double bond.
57. obtained by chlorination of $$n$$ - butane, will be
A
meso-form
B
racemic mixture
C
$$d$$ - form
D
$$l$$ - form
Answer :
racemic mixture
Chlorination of alkanes is a free-radical reaction. Since the intermediate free radical is planar ( $$s{p^2}$$ hybridised ) it can be attacked on either side of the face forming racemic mixture.
58.
In the reaction given below,
which of the following statements is correct
A
The reaction proceeds $$via\,{S_N}2$$ mechanism hence inversion of configuration takes place.
B
The reaction proceeds $$via\,{S_N}1$$ mechanism hence inversion of configuration takes place.
C
The reaction proceeds $$via\,{S_N}2$$ mechanism hence their is no change in the configuration.
D
The reaction proceeds $$via\,{S_N}1$$ mechanism hence there is no change in the configuration.
Answer :
The reaction proceeds $$via\,{S_N}2$$ mechanism hence inversion of configuration takes place.
Inversion of configuration takes place in $${S_N}2$$ mechanism.
59.
In two separate experiments equal quantities of an alkyl halide, $${C_4}{H_9}Cl,$$ were treated at the same temperature with equal volume of 0.1 molar and 0.2 molar solutions of $$NaOH$$ respectively. In both the experiments, $${t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$$ of the two reactions were the same. The most likely structure of halide is
A
$$C{H_3}C{H_2}C{H_2}C{H_2}Cl$$
B
$$C{H_3}CH\left( {Cl} \right)C{H_2}C{H_3}$$
C
$${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_2}CHC{H_2}Cl$$
D
$${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}CCl$$
Answer :
$${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}CCl$$
As it is independent of the concentration of $$NaOH.$$ So, it undergoes via $${S_N}1.$$ So, most likely the halide is tertiary halide.
60.
Which is the correct IUPAC name for \[C{{H}_{3}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}
|\,\,\,\,\,\, \\
{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}
\end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{-CH-}}\,C{{H}_{2}}-Br?\]
A
1-Bromo-2-ethylpropane
B
1-Bromo-2-ethyl-2-methylethane
C
1-Bromo- 2-methylbutane
D
2-Methyl-1-bromobutane
Answer :
1-Bromo- 2-methylbutane
No explanation is given for this question. Let's discuss the answer together.
