PART-A

Q1. In the substitution reaction of toluene with chlorine, how would you ascertain

the formation of product would take place on nucleus or side chain? What are various

conditions under which the reaction would take place on the nucleus?

Q2. In the halogenations reaction of vinyl chlorides and alkyl bromide, how the

resonance structures of these compounds differentiate towards the formation of

products.

Q3. Alkyl halides are more susceptible towards the nucleophilic substitution

reaction, justify your answer.

PART-B

Q4. What are Organo-lithium compounds, how does these show reactions with

ethylene oxide and dimethylformamide

Q5. Why primary alkyl halides show SN2 reaction mechanism where as tertiary

alkyl halides show SN1 mechanism, give suitable example to support the mechanism.
Q6. Para-nitrochlorobenzene give rise to the formation of para-nitrophenol in

presence of a strong base like NaOH, give the mechanism for the formation of

product also give the various reactive intermediate involved in the synthesis.
