A___

(i). An organic compound ‘ A ‘ having molecular formula C3 H6 on treatment with aq. H2SO4
give ‘B’ which on treatment with Lucas reagent gives ‘C’. The compound ‘C’ on treatment
with ethanolic KOH gives back ‘ A’ .Identify A, B , C .
(II) An organic compound A (C6H6O) gives a characte
characteristic colour with aq. FeCl3 solution. (A) On reacting with CO2
and NaOH at 400k under pressure gives (B) which on acidification gives a compound (C) .The compound (C)
reacts with acetyl chloride to give (D) which is a popular pain killer.
killer. Deduce the structure of A,B,C & D.
(iii) An organic compound (X) when dissolved in ether and treated with magnesium metal forms a compound Y.
The compound, Y, on treatment with acetaldehyde and the product on acid hydrolysis gives isopropyl
alcohol. Identify the compound X. What is the general name of the compounds of the type Y.
(iv). Give Reasons for the followings :--
1. Phenol is acidic in nature.
2. Phenol has a smaller dipole moment than methanol.
3. o- nitrophenol has lower boiling point ( is more volatile ) than p – nitrophenol.
4. Methanol is miscible with water while iodomethane is not.
5. Alcohols have higher boiling points
nts than isomeric ethers.
6. Ethers are soluble in water alkanes are not.
7. The order of acidic strength in alcohols is R CH2OH > R2 CHOH > R3 COH
