Carboxylic Acids and their Derivatives 2 Question 45

45. In the following reactions, identify the compounds $A, B, C$ and $D$.

(i) $\mathrm{PCl}{5}+\mathrm{SO}{2} \longrightarrow A+B$

(ii) $A+\mathrm{CH}{3} \mathrm{COOH} \longrightarrow C+\mathrm{SO}{2}+\mathrm{HCl}$

(iii) $2 \mathrm{C}+\left(\mathrm{CH}{3}\right){2} \mathrm{Cd} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{D}+\mathrm{CdCl}_{2}(1994,1 \mathrm{M} \times 4=4 \mathrm{M})$

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (i) $\mathrm{PCl}{5}+\mathrm{SO}{2} \longrightarrow \underset{B}{\mathrm{POCl}{3}}+\underset{A}{\mathrm{SOCl}{2}}$

(ii) $\mathrm{SOCl}{2}+\mathrm{CH}{3} \mathrm{COOH} \longrightarrow \mathrm{CH}{3} \mathrm{COCl}+\mathrm{SO}{2}+\mathrm{HCl}$

$(A)$

(iii)
