Carboxylic acids And Acid Derivatives
How can the following conversions be brought about:
(i) Nitro benzene to benzene diazonium chloride.
(ii) Propanoic acid to ethylamine.
(iii) Benzoic acid to benzaldehyde
Identify the compounds A, B, C, D, E, and F:
Write balanced chemical equations for the following reactions:
(i) Oxalic acid is treated with acidified potassium permanganate solution.
(ii) Benzoic acid is treated with a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and concentrated sulphuric acid.
(iii) Methyl magnesium iodide is treated with carbon dioxide and the product hydrolysed in acidic medium.
(iii) Ethylacetate is treated with ammonia.
An organic compound [A] having molecular formula C2H7N on treatment with nitrous acid gives a compound [B] having molecular formula C2H6O. [B] on treatment with an organic compound [C] gives a carboxylic acid [D] and a sweet smelling compound [E]. Oxidation of [B] with acidified potassium dichromate also gives [D].
(i) Identify [A], [B], [C], [D] and [E],
(ii) Write balanced chemical equation of [D] with chlorine is the presence of red phosphorus and name the reaction. compounds relevant to these isomers.
[A] → CH3CH2NH2 or Ethylamine
[B] → CH3CH2OH or Ethanol
[C] → (CH3CO2)O or Ethanoic anhydride
[D] → CH3COOH or Ethanoic acid
[E] → CH3COOC2H5 or Ethy ethanoate
ii) 
This reaction is called Hell-volhard -Zelinsky (HUZ) reaction.
