Giving justification, categorise the following molecules/ions as nucleophile or electrophile: HS − ,BF 3 ,C 2 H 5 O − , (CH 3 ) 3 N: ,Cl + , CH 3 –C + =O , H 2 –N: – , + NO 2

Options

  1. ANucleophiles are + NO 2 ,C 2 H 5 O − , (CH 3 ) 3 N: , H 2 –N: – and Electrophiles are BF 3 ,Cl + , CH 3 –C + =
  2. BNucleophiles are HS − ,CH 3 –C + =O, (CH 3 ) 3 N: , H 2 –N: – and Electrophiles are BF 3 ,Cl + , C 2 H 5 O − ,
  3. CNucleophiles are HS − ,C 2 H 5 O − , (CH 3 ) 3 N: , H 2 –N: – and Electrophiles are BF 3 ,Cl + , CH 3 –C + =O,
  4. DElectrophiles are HS − ,C 2 H 5 O − , (CH 3 ) 3 N: , H 2 –N: – and Nucleophiles are BF 3 ,Cl + , CH 3 –C + =O,

Correct answer

C. Nucleophiles are HS − ,C 2 H 5 O − , (CH 3 ) 3 N: , H 2 –N: – and Electrophiles are BF 3 ,Cl + , CH 3 –C + =O,

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (C) Nucleophiles are HS − ,C 2 H 5 O − , (CH 3 ) 3 N: , H 2 –N: – and Electrophiles are BF 3 ,Cl + , CH 3 –C + =O, + NO 2
