Organic Reactions


Organic Reaction 



Starting from organic chemistry basic reactions we have Alkenes and how to prepare them well I am going to show you some simple shortcuts to remember these things.


Decarboxylation of mono-carboxylic Acids:



Hope you got it.
NUST Entry test MCQ regarding this topic is given below



The answer is C , methanoic acid .

"Decarboxylation of Benzoic acid will yield Benzene"

Kolbe�s electrolysis method is a difficult one , you must remember the products it yield when a certain acid is give.
This will help you remembering which acid yield what!


Maleic acid and Fumaric acid must be remembered.

Now Kolbe�s electrolytic method explained , try to write this down on your note book and then solve please you will understand.

 

All these methods are used to prepare alkanes :)

Clemnnsesn and Wolf-kishners method is used to prepare Alkenes by Reduction.

Starting from Acids.



Acetic acid > Aldehyde > primary alcohol > Ethane 

You must remember this , very important asked many times in NET



Q: The Reduction of Aldehyde yield which type of alcohol the answer is P.Alcohol
Q: the reduction of ketones yields which type of alcohols well the answer is Secondary alcohol

Now getting to the alkenes production , just remember this shortcut.



Dehydrating agents
H2SO4 , P2O5 are dehydrating agents , mean de(remove) hydrate(water) so they remove water from alkenes forming alcohol. At different temperature they yield different alcohols. See book for that (IMPORTANT!!!)

Ozonolysis 

See the picture below



Polymerization , production of benzene conversion , all covered in same topic :)






most important from board point of view. Distinguish 1-butyne from 2-butyne.

Wurtz synthesis
This reaction is used to prepare symmetrical alkane. This was question of 2013 board exam convert ethane into methane and methane into ethane :) I hope you can do it too now.


Different reactions used for preparing alky halides;





H------O------H   -----------> HCl of left end SO2 in middle and HCl on right

Cl-----S-------Cl
||
O

Rest of reactions are same as above :)
that�s it from me :)

Inverse of a Function

Inverse of a Function In this Post I will discuss the method for finding the inverse of a given function from the 4 options as given in the Entrance tests of Engineering Universities. The very first step before finding the inverse is to make a check whether the function is One-to-One or not.  By One-to-One function we mean that function for example f(x) should not have the same value at two different values of x. In other words for each element of the Domain there should be a distinct element in the range. Check for One-to-One: A function which passes the horizontal line test is a One-to-One function. This means if a horizontal line is drawn it should not cross the function curve at more than one point. Another way to check if a function is One-to-One or not is shown below: If , f(a) = f(b) , implies that a=b , the given function is One-to-One. Consider the following examples: f(x) = 5x + 10 f(a) = 5a + 10 f(b) = 5b + 10 Taking f(a) = f(b) gives, 5a...
