Question

Predict the products of the following reactions:
(a) $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - B r + A g C N ⟶ (a q . a l c o h o l)$
(b) $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - B r + K N O_{2} ⟶ (a q . a l c o h o l)$
(d) $C H_{3} - I + M g d r y e t h e r - ---- \to$

Open in App

Solution

The products of the reactions are as shown.
(a) $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - B r + A g C N ⟶ (a q . a l c o h o l) C H_{3} - C H_{2} - N C + A g B r$
(b) $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - B r + K N O_{2} ⟶ (a q . a l c o h o l) C H_{3} - C H_{2} - N O_{2} + K B r$
(c) $C H_{3} - I + M g d r y e t h e r - ---- \to C H_{3} - M g I (grignard reagent)$
