Place the number corresponding to the compound's relative rank in the blank below the structure.10. ANSWER: POINTS: 111. ANSWER: POINTS: 1Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero Page 2Chapter 17 - Alcohols and Phenols12. ANSWER: POINTS: 113. Explain why nonafluoro-2-methyl-2-propoxide is a much weaker base than tert-butoxide.ANSWER: Nonafluoro-2-methyl-2-propoxide anion is more stable than tert-butoxide anion because the electron-withdrawing fluoride atoms inductively delocalize the negative charge. Since nonafluoro-2-methyl-2-propoxide is more stable than tert-butoxide, it is a weaker base.POINTS: 1Exhibit 17-2Refer to the data below to answer the following question(s).pKas of Some PhenolsYp Ka −H9.89 m-NO28.28 p-NO27.17 m-OCH39.65 p-OCH310.2114. Refer to Exhibit 17-2. The weakest acid in the table is:ANSWER: p-methoxyphenolPOINTS: 115. Refer to Exhibit 17-2. Which of the acids in the Table has the weakest conjugate base?Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero Page 3Chapter 17 - Alcohols and PhenolsANSWER: p-nitrophenolPOINTS: 116. Refer to Exhibit 17-2. How do you account for the difference in acidity between meta and para-nitrophenol?ANSWER: In m-nitrophenol, the inductive effect of the electron-withdrawing nitro group helps to stabilize the negative charge on oxygen. However, when the nitro group is para to the oxygen, direct conjugation of the negative charge on oxygen with the nitro group can occur. p-Nitrophenolate ion is, thus, more stable than m-nitrophenolate ion, and, as a result, forms more readily.POINTS: 1Exhibit 17-3To answer the following question(s), consider the reaction below:17. Refer to Exhibit 17-3. The best reagents for accomplishing the above transformation are:a. 1.OsO4, pyridine 2.NaHSO3, H2Ob. 1.Hg(OAc)2, H2O 2.NaBH4c. 1.RCO3H, CH2Cl2 2.H3O+d. 1.BH3, THF 2.H2O2, −OHANSWER: dPOINTS: 118.

On the structures provided below, draw arrows which account for the complete stepwise mechanism for this reaction.ANSWER: POINTS: 122. Refer to Exhibit 17-4. The dehydration of secondary and tertiary alcohols by reaction with POCl3 in pyridine is an example of:a. an E1 processb.an SN1 processc. an E2 processCengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero Page 5Chapter 17 - Alcohols and Phenolsd.an SN2 processANSWER: cPOINTS: 123. Refer to Exhibit 17-4. Why is 3-methylcyclohexene the major product of this reaction instead of 1-methycyclohexene?ANSWER: In E2 elimination, dehydration proceeds most readily when the two groups to be eliminated have a trans-diaxial relationship. In this compound, the only hydrogen with the proper geometric relationship to the −OH group is at C6 so the major product of this reaction is 3-methylcyclohexene.POINTS: 124. Acid-catalyzed dehydration of 2,2-dimethylcyclohexanol yields 1,2-dimethylcyclohexene as one of the major products. Write the complete stepwise mechanism for this reaction.
