Q

fuming sulfuric acid is made out of

conc. sulfuric acid that contains SO3

26
Q

is an equilibrium reaction; all steps are equilibria

A

sulfonation

27
Q

The sulfonation product is favored by use of what kind of H2SO4

A

concentrated or fuming

28
Q

can be accomplished using dilute sulfuric acid

A

desulfonation

29
Q

sulfuric acid with a high concentration of water

A

dilute sulfuric accid

30
Q

another way for desulfonation aside from using dillute sulfuric acid

A

passing steam through the reaction and collecting the volatile desulfonated compound as it distils with the steam

31
Q

in the friedel-crafts alkylation what does the Lewis acid do

A

generate a carbocation electrophile

32
Q

Friedel-Crafts Alkylation is named after

A

Charles Friedel
James M. Crafts

33
Q

probably do not form discreet carbocations but
the primary carbon in the complex develops considerable positive charge

A

primary alkyl halides

34
Q

carbonyl attached to some R group

A

acyl group

35
Q

requires reaction of an acid chloride or acid anhydride with a Lewis acid such as aluminium chloride

A

Friedel-Crafts Acylation

36
Q

acid chlorides are made from what

A

carboxylic acids

37
Q

The electrophile in Friedel-Crafts acylation is an

A

acylium ion

38
Q

also make the ring less reactive to Friedel-Crafts
reaction because they become electron-withdrawing groups upon Lewis acid-base reaction with the Lewis acid catalyst

A

amino groups

39
Q

give groups that usually give poor yields in Friedel Crafts reaction

A

grade yourself accordingly

40
Q

cannot be used in Friedel-Crafts reactions because they do not form carbocations readily

A

aryl and vinyl halides

41
Q

occurs frequently with Friedel-Crafts alkylation because the first alkyl group introduced activates the ring toward further substitution

A

polyalkylation

42
Q

does not occur because the acyl group deactivates the aromatic ring to further substitution

A

polyacylation

43
Q

44
Q

Clemmensen reduction reduces C=O to

electron-donating groups

57
Q

deactivate the ring toward further reaction

A

electron withdrawing groups

58

destabilize the transition state and lead
to higher DG‡ and slower rates of reaction

A

electron-withdrawing groups

59
Q

most electron donating compounds include
