Question 3

The following reaction scheme will synthesize the product shown.

Accepted Answer

The product shown in the image can be synthesized by the given reaction scheme.

Question 4

The product of the reaction of toluene with concentrated nitric and sulfuric acid is m-nitrotoluene.

Accepted Answer

The product of the reaction of toluene with concentrated nitric and sulfuric acid is primarily ortho- and para-nitrotoluene, not meta-nitrotoluene. The nitration of toluene tends to favor the ortho and para positions due to the electron-donating effect of the methyl group.

Question 5

The following reaction scheme will synthesize the product shown.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The following reaction scheme will synthesize the...

Question 6

The following compounds are listed in decreasing order of reactivity toward electrophilic aromatic substitution.

Accepted Answer

The compounds are listed in order of increasing reactivity.

Question 7

The product of the reaction of isopropylbenzene with chromic acid is methylphenyl ketone.

Accepted Answer

The product of the reaction of isopropylbenzene (cumene) with chromic acid is acetophenone, not methylphenyl ketone.

Question 8

The following ion is aromatic.

Accepted Answer

It is not possible to determine the identity of the ion based on the given alphanumeric string. However, aromaticity is a property of organic compounds, so it is unlikely that an ion would be considered aromatic.
