Which of the following compounds will be suitable for Kjeldah1’s method for nitrogen estimation?
The increasing order of basicity of the following compounds is:
(d) < (b) < (a) < (c)
(a) < (b) < (c) < (d)
(b) < (a) < (c) < (d)
(b) < (a) < (d) < (c)
The compound that does not produce nitrogen gas by the thermal decomposition is
(NH4)2SO4
Ba(N3)2
(NH4)2Cr2O7
NH4NO2
Amongst the following compounds, the one(s) which readily react with ethanolic KCN.
Ethyl chloride
Chlorobenzene
Benzaldehyde
Salicylic acid
An amine C3H9N reacts with benzene sulphonyl chloride to form a white precipitate which is insoluble in aq. NaOH. The amine is
The reaction of aniline with chloroform under alkaline conditions leads to the formation of
phenylcyanide
phenylisonitrile
phenylcyanate
phenylisocyanate
B.
phenylisonitrile
Aniline is a primary amine (contains -NH2 group). When it is treated with chloroform under alkaline conditions, it results in the formation of a bad smelling compound, known by the name isonitrile or carbylamine. This reaction is known as carbylamine reaction.
When aniline is nitrated with nitrating mixture in ice cold condition, the major product obtained is
p-nitroaniline
2,4-dinitroaniline
o-nitroaniline
m-nitroaniline
The basicity of aniline is weaker in comparison to that of methyl amine due to
hyperconjugative effect of Me-group in MeNH2
resonance effect of phenyl group in aniline
lower molecular weight of methyl amine as compared to that of aniline
resonance effect of - NH2 group in MeNH2
