ORGANIC QUESTIONS - REVISION

1. An alkene ‘A’reacts with HBr to form ‘B’. B undergoes β-elimination, when


heated with alcoholic KOH produces ‘C’. A and C are isomers with the molecular
formula C4H8.Identify A, Band C.

2. A hydrocarbon 'A' is converted to a carbonyl compound ‘B’ on warming


with mercuric sulphate and dil. H₂S04 at 333K. ‘B’ is the product of ozonolysis of
but-2-ene. Identify A and B.

3. An alkene 'A' undergoes oxidation with acidified KMnO4 to form B and C.


Sodium salt of 'B' on soda lime decarboxylation produces methane. Sodium salt
of ‘C’ on soda lime decarboxylation produces ethane. Identify A,B and C.

4. An organic compound, ‘A' undergoes dehydration in presence of Conc.


H₂S04 to form 'B. ‘B’ is converted to propanone and ethanal, when ozone is
added to it followed by hydrolysis. Identify A & B.

5. An alkyl halide A, when treated with sodium in dry ether produces 'B'. 'B'
can also be obtained by soda lime decarboxylation of sodiumpropanoate.
Identify A & B.

6. An alkene 'A' undergoes hydrolysis in presence of a few drops of Conc.H 2SO4


to form 2- methylpropan-2-ol. Identify 'A'.

7. An alkene 'A' undergoes oxidation with acidified KMnO4 to form 'B and 'C'.
Sodium salt of B undergoes decarboxylation to form ethane. 'C' can be obtained
on warming propyne with mercuric sulphate and dil. H₂S04 at 333K. Identify A,
Band C.
