Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
Whether the compound given is ortho-, meta-, or para-disubstituted is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Disubstituted benzenes are named using the prefixes ortho (o), meta (m) and para (p). An ortho-disubstituted benzene has its two substituent groups in a 1,2-relationship on the ring. A meta-disubstituted benzene has its two substituent groups in a 1,3-relationship on the ring. A para-disubstituted benzene has its two substituent groups in a 1,4-relationship on the ring.
To state:
Whether the compound given is ortho-, meta-, or para-disubstituted.

Ethylene glycol, a major component of antifreeze, becomes especially poisonous when it is oxidized by the liver. Draw two oxidation products that could be derived from ethylene glycol. 2.When 2-methyl-1-butanol is dehydrated in an acid medi- um to an alkene, it yelds mainly 2-methyl-2-butene rather than 2-methyl-1-butene. This indicates that the dehydra- tion to an alkene is at least a two-step reaction. Suggest a mechanism to explain the reaction.arrow_forwardA 2-bromobutane react with methanol and form a enantiomeric pair of 2-methoxybutane.
