5. When ortho-bromonitrobenzene is treated with NaOH at elevated temperature, only one product is formed. (a) Draw the product. (b) Identify the intermediate formed en route to the product. (c) Would the reaction occur if the starting compound were meta-bromonitrobenzene

The product formed is orthonitrophenol

Explanation:

The compound orthonitrophenol is formed when ortho-bromonitrobenzene is treated with NaOH at elevated temperature.

The reaction leads to the formation of an intermediate stabilized by resonance. This intermediate can not be formed by the meta isomer because a resonance stabilized intermediate can not be formed and the product is not stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding hence this reaction will not occur.

under a microscope, cancer cells may look very different from normal cells. they often have different sizes and some may be larger than normal while others are smaller. cancer cells are often abnormally shaped and the control centre of the cell (the nucleus) may have an abnormal appearance.
