Q 1 :

Acid D formed in above reaction is:                                   [2024]

  • Malonic acid

     

  • Oxalic acid

     

  • Succinic acid

     

  • Gluconic acid

     

(3)

 



Q 2 :

The total number of compounds from below when treated with hot KMnO4 giving benzoic acid is:           [2025]

  • 3

     

  • 5

     

  • 4

     

  • 6

     

(2)

According to NTA following five compounds give benzoic acid upon oxidation with KMnO4, because presence of a benzylic hydrogen is necessary for oxidation of side chain to –COOH.

But if there is oxygen or multiple bond at benzylic position, then also oxidation occurs.

 



Q 3 :

The major product ‘P’ formed in the given reaction is

                                             [2023]

  •  

  •  

  •  

  •  

(4)

Benzylic carbon gets oxidised into carboxylic acid in presence of KMnO4 and heat.



Q 4 :

Q 5 :

An organic compound (P) on treatment with aqueous ammonia under hot condition forms compound (Q) which on heating with Br2 and KOH forms compound (R) having molecular formula C6H7N. Names of P, Q and R respectively are.    [2026]

  • Benzoic acid, benzamide, aniline

     

  • Phenylethanoic acid, phenylethanamide, benzamine

     

  • Toluic acid, methylbenzamide, 2-methylaniline

  • C > A > D > B

     

  • A > D > C > B

     

  • C > B > A > D

     

(2)

Correct order of acidic strength of major product formed in the given reaction is

(B) CH3CH2CHOΔAg(NH3)2OHCH3CH2COOH

(C) CH4+O2Na2Cr2O7/H+Mo2O3HCOOH

(D) Ph-CH2MgBr+CO2H3ODry etherPh-CH2-COOH

Ans. (2)  C>A>D>B



Q 7 :

Incorrect statement is

  • In carboxylic acids, the bonds to the carboxyl carbon lie in one plane and are separated by about 120°.

     

  • The carboxylic carbon is less electrophilic than carbonyl carbon because of the resonance in carboxylic acid.

     

  • Aliphatic carboxylic acids upto nine carbon atoms are colorless liquids at room temperature with pleasant odours.

     

  • Most carboxylic acids exist as dimer in the vapour phase.

     

(3)

Aliphatic carboxylic acids upto nine carbon atoms are colorless liquids at room temperature with unpleasant odours.
