Basic Organic Chemistry(Quiz-2) 1 / 5 In which of the following reactions lead tetraacetate is used to cleave a carbon-carbon bond in a glycol? Swern oxidation Criegee oxidation Jones oxidation Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation The oxidation of 1,2‐diols (or glycols) to aldehydes or ketones with lead tetraacetate [Pb(OAc)4, LTA] via the cleavage of C‐C bond between the hydroxyl‐carrying carbon atoms is generally known as Criegee Glycol oxidation. This reaction has been reported to occur only in an anhydrous organic solvent. 2 / 5 Which of the following is neither an acid nor base? KCl CH3OH HCl CH3COOH CH3COOH and CH3OH are organic acids, HCl is a strong acid and KCl is a salt. 3 / 5 Which of the following is true about transesterification? exchanging the organic alkyl group of alcohol with the organic group alkyl of an ester exchanging the organic alkyl group of an ester with the organic group alkyl of an ether exchanging the organic alkyl group of an ester with the organic group alkyl of an alcohol exchanging the organic alkyl group of an ester with the organic group alkyl of an alkane Transesterification is the process of exchanging the organic group R″ of an ester with the organic group R′ of an alcohol. 4 / 5 Which of the following compound is yielded from the reduction of nitroalkanes? Amine Acid Diazo compounds Alcohol Reduction of nitroalkanes yields amines, as shown in below reaction. 5 / 5 Which of the following organic compound is formed when aniline reacts with acetaldehyde? Diazonium salt Immine Schiff’s base Carbylamine Aniline reacts with acetaldehyde to form Schiff base. Your score isThe average score is 37% 0% Restart quiz
