Questions Related to diazonium salts

Sandmeyer reaction is better than Gattermann reaction because:

chemistry amines chemical reactions of diazonium salts chemical properties of diazonium salts diazonium salts

  1. sandmeyer reaction uses salt of copper while Gattermann reaction uses copper powder.

  2. only one salt is produced in Sandmeyer reaction while Gattermann reaction produces two salts.

  3. sandmeyer reaction gives better yield than Gattermann reaction.

  4. all of the above.

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Sandmeyer gives a higher yield.So,it is better than Gattermann reaction.

Which of the reaction would you choose for the most beneficial conversion shown below?
$ArN _2^+X \rightarrow ArCl$

chemistry amines chemical reactions of diazonium salts chemical properties of diazonium salts diazonium salts

  1. Sandmeyer Reaction

  2. Gattermann Reaction

  3. Directly reacting with $HCl$

  4. Both A and B

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Sandmeyer and Gattermann reactions are two processes used mostly for the above conversion.But Sandmeyer is more beneficial as it gives a higher yield.

Replacement of diazonium group of fluorine is known as:

chemistry amines chemical reactions of diazonium salts chemical properties of diazonium salts diazonium salts

  1. Gattermann reaction

  2. Sandmeyer reaction

  3. Balz-Schiemann reaction

  4. Etard reaction

Show answer
Correct Option: C

3- Amino-2, 3-dimethyl butan-2-ol when treated with $ NaNO _{2}/HCl$ gives product (X). (X) on treatment with $LiAlH _{4}$ forms (Y). (Y) on heating with $conc. H _{2}SO _{4}$ forms (Z). The molecular weight of (Z) is :

  1. 81

  2. 82

  3. 83

  4. 84

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

3- Amino-2, 3-dimethyl butan-2-ol is diazotized with sodium nitrite in presence of HCl at low temperature to obtain 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one (compound X).
The carbonyl group is then reduced to obtain 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol (compound Y). This is followed by dehydration to obtain 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene (compound Z).

Cyanide group on hydrolysis give:

chemistry organic compounds containing nitrogen chemical reactions of diazonium salts chemical properties of diazonium salts diazonium salts

  1. acid

  2. acetamide

  3. amine

  4. hydrate

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
$\displaystyle \underset{Cyanide}{RCN} \xrightarrow{H _2O} \underset{Amide}{RCONH _2}   \xrightarrow{H _2O} \underset{Acid}{RCOOH} + \underset{Ammonia}{NH _3}$
$\therefore $ Hydrolysis of cyanide results in formation of acid.

The reagent commonly used to determine hardness of water titrimetrically is:

chemistry organic compounds containing nitrogen chemical reactions of diazonium salts chemical properties of diazonium salts diazonium salts

  1. Oxalic acid

  2. Disodium salt of EDTA

  3. Sodium citrate

  4. Sodium thiosulphate

  5. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The total hardness of water (i.e. the concentration of dissolved cations such as $Ca^{2+}, Mg^{2+}, Fe^{3+}$ etc.) is commonly determined by the titration of a water sample with a standardized solution of the disodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) using eriochrome black T or calmagite as an indicator. Calmagite has the advantage of forming indefinitely stable solutions and will be substituted without any other modification to the procedure.
Hence option B is correct.
