Acetanilide to p-Nitroaniline Post Lab Questions

Fill in the blanks with the correct answer -NH2 group is directing group; -NH3+ group is directing group Nitration of aniline with a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid produces mostly m-nitroaniline. Explain. How does the basicity of the nitrogen atom of acetanilide compare with that for aniline? Explain. Both, sulfuric and nitric acid are strong acids, but according to your experience in this experiment, which one is stronger? Which group, amino or p-acetamido. activates the aromatic ring more toward electrophilic attack? Explain. In the hydrolysis step you have 1 mole of p-nitroacetanilide and 300 mL of HCL 6N. After the neutralization, you end up with 100 g of p-nitroaniline. What was your % yield? Explain why o-nitroaniline is less polar than p-nitroaniline.

Explanation / Answer

NH2 IS ortho and para directing
