I. (9 points) Silica gel thin layer chromatography (TLC) is often used to monitor the progress of an organic reaction. For the following ester hydrolysis reaction, a solvent system is selected to give the starting material an Rf value of about 0.5. (1) Provide in the box below the structure of the expected product 2. (2) Fill in the spots that would be expected when the reaction is 50% compete and 100% complete, each after acidic work-up. Make sure to assign each spot you draw to the corresponding compound number (1, 2, or 3). Consider only the compounds that can be visualized as a spot on TLC upon exposure of each solvent-dried plate to a 254 nm-UV lamp.
Name ___key_____________________
On each TLC plate, a student has placed a sample of the starting material (1) as areference on the left of the plate, a spotof the reaction mixture on the right, and a co-spot in the center of each. Co-spotting is where some of 1 and some of the reaction mixture are spotted together in order to make better comparisons.

The procedure calls for 372 g of aniline (5), 127 g of benzyl chloride (4), 105 g of NaHCO3, and 100 mL of water. A typical reaction produces 160 g of pure benzylaniline (6). Use the following atomic weights: H, 1; C, 12; N, 14; Na, 23; Cl, 35.5. (1) (2 points) What is the molecular weight of benzylaniline (6)? Mol formula of 6 is C13H13N . So, the molecular weight is: 183 (g/mol). (2) (3 points) What is the molar ratio of aniline (5): benzyl chloride (4) used in this reaction? Show your work. 4: 127 / 126.5 = 1.004 mol 5: 372 / 93 = 4.0 Therefore, the molar ration of 5 : 4 is 4 / 1.004 = 4 (3) (2 points) What is the liming reagent in this reaction? Benzyl chloride (4): 1.004 mol; aniline (5): 4.0 mol; NaHCO3: 1.25 mol Therefore, the limiting reagent is benzyl chloride (4). (4) (3 points) What is the theoretical yield of benzylaniline (6)? Show your work. 1 mol x 183 g / mol = 183 g Theoretical yield is 183 g. (5) (3 points) What is the percentage yield of benzylaniline (6) if 160 g is produced? Show your work. (160 g / 183 g) x 100 = 87.4 Yield: 87.4% (6) (2 points) What volume of benzyl chloride (density 1.10 g/mL) is used in this reaction? Show your work. 127 g / (1.10 g/mL) = 115.5 mL Volume of benzyl chloride used: 115.5 mL

IV. (8 points) The pKa values of the conjugate acids of aniline and 4-cyanoaniline are determined to be, respectively, 4.60 and 1.57. Explain in the box below why the latter is considerably more acidic than the former using pertinent resonance structures of both the conjugate acid of 4-cyanoaniline and 4-cyanoaniline itself.

The NH2 lone-pair electronsare delocalized into the CN group,i.e., more stable than C6H5NH2.This makes the NH2 nitrogen less basic. Therefore, the conjugate acid of 4-cyanoaniline is more acidic than that of aniline.
For the conjugate acid of 4-cyanoaniline: For 4-cyanoaniline:
