Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula textPrincipal Functional Group Priority: -OH > textDouble bond (=) ge textTriple bond (equivtext) ### Core Logic Number the seven-carbon parent chain from the side that gives the principal functional group (-OH) and double bond the lowest locants: - Numbering from right-to-left gives locants: alkene at position 1, alcohol at 4, and alkyne at 6. - Numbering from left-to-right gives locants: alkyne at 1, alcohol at 4, alkene at 6. According to IUPAC rules, when choices are symmetric for the principal group, the lower locant is given to the double bond over the triple bond. Hence, right-to-left numbering is correct: overset7textHoverset6textCequiv overset5textC-overset4textCtextH_2-overset3textCtextH(OH)-overset2textCtextH_2-overset1textCtextH=textCH_2 This gives: **Hept-1-en-6-yn-4-ol**. ### Pattern Recognition When terminal unsaturations are tied symmetrically (positions 1 and 6), the alkene ('en') takes prefix allocation priority over the alkyne ('yn'). The secondary alcohol suffix '-ol' forms the principal name ending. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Principles of Organic Chemistry

Q39 jee_main_2025_24_jan_evening Directive Influence of Functional Groups
Identify the correct statement/s from the following options: (A) -mathrmOCH_3 and -mathrmNHCOCH_3 are activating groups (B) -mathrmCN and -mathrmOH are meta directing groups (C) -mathrmCN and -mathrmSO_3mathrmH are meta directing groups (D) Activating groups act as ortho- and para- directing groups (E) Halides are activating groups Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
  • A. \text{(A), (C) and (D) only}
  • B. \text{(A), (B) and (E) only}
  • C. \text{(A) only}
  • D. \text{(A) and (C) only}

Solution

### Core Logic Let's evaluate each statement based on electrophilic aromatic substitution guidelines: * Statement (A): Both -mathrmOCH_3 and -mathrmNHCOCH_3 have lone pairs on the atom directly attached to the benzene ring. These lone pairs undergo resonance delocalization into the ring, increasing electron density and activating it toward substitution. This statement is true. * Statement (B): While -mathrmCN is a deactivating meta-directing group, -mathrmOH is a strongly activating ortho/para-directing group due to resonance. This statement is false. * Statement (C): Both -mathrmCN and -mathrmSO_3mathrmH withdraw electron density via inductive and resonance effects (-I, -M). This deactivates the ring and directs substitution to the meta position. This statement is true. * Statement (D): Activating groups increase electron density primarily at the ortho and para positions via resonance, directing incoming electrophiles to those sites. This statement is true. * Statement (E): Halogens are an exception: they are deactivating due to their strong inductive effect (-I), but ortho/para-directing due to resonance (+M). This statement is false. Therefore, statements (A), (C), and (D) are correct, which matches Option (1). ### Pattern Recognition Groups that activate the aromatic ring by donating electrons via resonance always direct incoming electrophiles to the ortho and para positions. Halogens are a unique exception: they deactivate the ring but still direct to the ortho and para positions. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Hydrocarbons Class 12 Chemistry: Haloalkanes and Haloarenes

The possible number of stereoisomers for 5-phenylpent-4-en-2-ol is .
Numerical Answer. Answer: 4 to 4

Solution

### Related Formula For an unsymmetrical molecule with n distinct stereogenic units (chiral centers or stereogenic double bonds): textTotal Stereoisomers = 2^n ### Core Logic Let's examine the structure of 5-phenylpent-4-en-2-ol: mathrmPh-CH=CH-CH_2-CH(OH)-CH_3 Identify the stereogenic units: 1. **Double Bond (mathrm-CH=CH-):** Positioned between carbons 4 and 5, this alkene group can exist in 2 distinct geometric configurations: *cis* (Z) or *trans* (E). 2. **Chiral Carbon Center (*mathrmC):** Carbon-2 is attached to four distinct groups: -mathrmH, -mathrmOH, -mathrmCH_3, and -mathrmCH_2-CH=CH-Ph. This asymmetric carbon center can exist in 2 distinct optical configurations: (R) or (S). Since the molecule is unsymmetrical, the two stereogenic units behave independently (n = 2): textTotal Stereoisomers = 2^2 = 4 ### Visual Mapping The structural tracking confirms the presence of these stereogenic sites:

### Pattern Recognition Always break the molecule down to count chiral centers and stereogenic double bonds independently. Since the molecule has asymmetric ends, you can safely use the simplified 2^n formula without worrying about meso configurations. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

### Related Formula For a hydrocarbon with the molecular formula mathrmC_x mathrmH_y, the Double Bond Equivalent (DBE) or Degree of Unsaturation (DU) is given by: textDU = x + 1 - fracy2 ### Core Logic 1. Calculate the mass of carbon in 1 mole of the hydrocarbon: textMass of Carbon = 80text g cdot 90\% = 72text g 2. Find the number of carbon atoms (x): x = frac7212 = 6 3. Find the mass and number of hydrogen atoms (y): textMass of Hydrogen = 80text g - 72text g = 8text g y = frac81 = 8 Thus, the molecular formula of hydrocarbon (X) is mathrmC_6mathrmH_8. 4.

  • D. Structure (4)
    Stability of Carbocations
    Stability of Carbocations

Solution

### Core Logic Carbocations are stabilized by structural factors such as the inductive effect (+I), mesomeric effect (+M), and hyperconjugation. In Structure (2), the carbocation center is situated directly adjacent to a strong electronic donor methoxy group (-OCH_3). This configuration allows highly effective lone pair donation into the vacant p-orbital of the carbocation via the structural +M mesomeric path, rendering it exceptionally stable. ### Pattern Recognition An adjacent heteroatom with a lone pair (O, N) triggers dynamic back-bonding stability (+M), which fundamentally outweighs basic hyperconjugation trends. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
