How do you explain the absence of aldehyde group in the pentaacetate of D-glucose?
Question: How do you explain the absence of aldehyde group in the pentaacetate of D-glucose? Solution: D-glucose reacts with hydroxylamine (NH2OH) to form an oxime because of the presence of aldehydic (CHO) group or carbonyl carbon. This happens as the cyclic structure of glucose forms an open chain structure in an aqueous medium, which then reacts with NH2OH to give an oxime. But pentaacetate of D-glucose does not react with NH2OH. This is because pentaacetate does not form an open chain struct...

Question: Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water but cyclohexane or benzene (simple six membered ring compounds) are insoluble in water. Explain. Solution: A glucose molecule contains five OH groups while a sucrose molecule contains eight OH groups. Thus, glucose and sucrose undergo extensive H-bonding with water. Hence, these are soluble in water. But cyclohexane and benzene do not contain OH groups. Hence, they cannot undergo H-bonding with water and as a result, are insoluble in water....

Question: Why cannot aromatic primary amines be prepared by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis? Solution: Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is used for the preparation of aliphatic primary amines. It involves nucleophilic substitution (SN2) of alkyl halides by the anion formed by the phthalimide. But aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with the anion formed by the phthalimide. Hence, aromatic primary amines cannot be prepared by this process....
