Ques. 1JEE Main 2025, 24 January (Morning Shift)

Which of the following arrangements with respect to their reactivity in nucleophilic addition reaction is correct?

  1. acetophenone < benzaldehyde < p-tolualdehyde < p-nitrobenzaldehyde
  2. acetophenone < p-tolualdehyde < benzaldehyde < p-nitrobenzaldehyde
  3. p-nitrobenzaldehyde < benzaldehyde < p-tolualdehyde < acetophenone
  4. benzaldehyde < acetophenone < p-nitrobenzaldehyde < p-tolualdehyde

Answer

(2) acetophenone < p-tolualdehyde < benzaldehyde < p-nitrobenzaldehyde

Solution

Reactivity + on carbonyl C, less crowding.

Ketone (acetophenone): two groups, more hindrance least reactive.

-CH3 (+I, hyperconjugation) lowers +; -NO2 (-I,-M) raises it.

acetophenone < p-tolualdehyde < benzaldehyde < p-nitrobenzaldehyde

Answer: (2)

Ques. 2JEE Main 2025, 24 January (Morning Shift)

Aman has been asked to synthesise the molecule [figure] He thought of preparing the molecule using an aldol condensation reaction. He found a few cyclic alkenes in his laboratory. He thought of performing ozonolysis reaction on alkene to produce a dicarbonyl compound followed by aldol reaction to prepare "x". Predict the suitable alkene that can lead to the formation of "x".
