Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of the products has to drawn which are obtained when 4-chloro-2-methyltoluene is reacted with sodium amide followed by treatment with H3O+ .

Concept Introduction:

  • Aromatic compounds undergo another type of reactions namely Aromatic nucleophilic substitution reactions designated as SNAr .
  • A nucleophile, unlike an electrophile is a species that is electron rich and always attracted towards electron deficient site. A nucleophile is mobile unlike electrophile.
  • The criteria for aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction to occur are –
  • The aromatic ring must contain a strong electron withdrawing group
  • The aromatic ring must contain a leaving group
  • The leaving group must be posited either ortho or para position to the strong electron withdrawing group.
  • Let the substituent be ‘X’ that then C-X bond gets broken and  C-Nu bond is formed. The substituent ‘X’ is termed as ‘Leaving group’. A good leaving is large in size with high electron affinity that they are capable to grabbing the bond pair electron and leaving form the aromatic C atom. Halogens are known to be excellent leaving group.
  • The overall reaction can be represented as follows –

  • In case where there is no possibility of SNAr reactions the compounds undergo another type of reaction under different reaction conditions called elimination – addition reaction. A compound with leaving group when treated with a strong base under high or low temperature undergoes elimination – addition reaction where the leaving group is eliminated and a new group is added.
  • The term Regioselectivity is referred as preference of a particular group to occupy a specific position in a compound. In case an aromatic ring has one or more than one substituents the position in the aromatic ring occupied by the incoming electrophile depends on various factors.
