okay guys,
help me out here....

what does the structure of phosphorus oxychloride look like? and also what would be the formal charge on it?
I thought it would be POCl2, with double bonded O to P, and formal charge of +1, but the answer is 0!!!

Now Ochem,
when we add NaN3 to a primary alkyl halide, we form an amine?

thanks in advance🙂

okay never mind about the first question. I just found the answer on google!!!
the structure is POCl3!!!

destroyer number 98?

 

[Dr. juju]

destroyer number 98?

don't have the destroyer hon, it was in topscore 3; but didn't ask for the actual reaction, just said which is better for SN2!!! I was just making sure if it forms an amine!

 

[hlsawdust]

NaN3 produces an N2 group if I remember correctly... (diazo group?)

Let me intro you to a new friend name...Wikipedia

What question was the phosphorous oxychloride on? It sounds like Oxy10 acne thingy.

I guess formal charge would be P +5, Cl -1, O -2 ?

NaN3 to give alkyl-N3. Later if you reduce it with LAH, you would then get primary amine and N2 as side product
