Question

In the given molecules the sites undergoes deprotonation and protonation most readily respectively are x & y the x+y=?
`overset(1)(N_(2)H)-underset(""^(2)NH)underset(||)C-overset(3)(NH)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-underset(""^(4)NH_(2))underset(|)CH-overeset(5)(COOH)`
How many of the following compounds will accept `H^(o+)` from ammonium ion.
Pyridine , Aniline, Pyrrole, Tripheryl amine,
Benzyl amine, Methyl amine, Di-methyl amine, Tri-methyl amine

Answer 1

Correct Answer - 7
5 is deprotanated since it is most acidic acid, 2 is protonated since it is most basic (guanidinci N).
x=5,y=2 so x+y=7
