Aniline (C6H5NH2) is a better nucleophile compared to anilinium (C6H5NH3+) because aniline is a stronger base due to the lone pair on the nitrogen that can participate in nucleophilic attacks. Anilinium is less nucleophilic because the positively charged nitrogen reduces its nucleophilic character.

Is an alcohol better leaving group than cyano group?
Although cyano isn't a very good leaving group (it IS a fantastic nucleophile, however), it is still better than an alcohol. The only way you can make an alcohol a good leaving group is to activate it somehow. Methods range from simple protonation (making [H-OH]+ - water) in an acidic environment, to tosyl-/mesylation to make OTs/OMs, to activation with a phosphorous reagent, etc.
Why Alkyl Halides are good for attacked by nucleufile?
This is a really great question that I often drill into my students heads. During the attack of an alkyl halide by a nucleophile, we see the electrons from the Nucleophile emptying into the anti-bonding orbital present at the rear of the carbon atom. It is at this position..... backside.....that the large-lobed anti-bonding orbital is located. This is seen in the SN2 process. In an SN1 process, a carbocation can form,,,,, resulting in an sp2 intermediate....which can readily be attacked by a nucleophile. Halogens such as I- are excellent leaving groups since the anion is stable. F- is a poor leaving group, since the huge negative charge is so concentrated that is results in an unstablized anion.
What is the positive form of good?
The positive form of "good" is "better."
Is ice a better conductor than copper?
No, Ice is a good insulator and copper is a very good conductor
Is salt water a good conductor?
good is relative. Salt water is a lot better than water or oil, but is never as good as a metal. Salt water is a good enough to conduct a small current with a battery.
Is NaOH considered a good nucleophile?
Yes, NaOH is considered a good nucleophile.
Is fluoride a good nucleophile?
Yes, fluoride is a good nucleophile due to its ability to donate a pair of electrons to form a new chemical bond with an electrophile.
Is OCH3 considered a good nucleophile?
Yes, OCH3 (methoxide ion) is considered a good nucleophile due to its ability to donate a lone pair of electrons and participate in nucleophilic reactions.
Is iodine considered a good nucleophile in chemical reactions?
Yes, iodine is considered a good nucleophile in chemical reactions due to its ability to donate electrons and form bonds with other atoms or molecules.
Is triethylamine a better nucleophile than ethanol?
No, Nucleophilicity is not the same thing as basiscity. Although Triethylamine is a strongerbase it is a far worse nucleophile. Nucleophilicity is dependent on sterics and whethe the incoming nuclophile can form a stable complex. In the case of triethylamine any complex formed will have a fomal positive charge on the Nitrogen and because all of its substituents are alkyl groups it can not loose them to become neutral. Ethanol on the other hand can loose a proton to form an ethoxide linkage and is the bette nucleophile but weaker base
Why primary alkyl halides show sn2 mechanism?
Primary alkyl halides favor SN2 mechanisms because they have less steric hindrance compared to secondary or tertiary alkyl halides. The SN2 mechanism involves a single-step backside attack of the nucleophile on the electrophilic carbon, requiring good nucleophile and leaving group properties. Additionally, primary alkyl halides have better leaving groups, such as halides, which further favor the SN2 reaction pathway.
What is the best way to get rid of dog saliva of aniline leather sofa?
It is essential to use a good quality protector on aniline style leathers as this will make this sort of problem much easier to deal with. Aniline style leathers are very absorbent and once stains have been absorbed by the leather they are often impossible to remove successfully. Treating leather with a protector (such as LTT Ultra Protect) will allow the saliva to sit on the surface rather than be soaked in and then it can be cleaned off. Lazy Leather is a unique aniline cleaner which is a non surfactant and will not be soaked up by the leather. It is a great maintenance product for aniline style leathers. source: http://www.LTTleathercare.co.uk
Why protic slovents favours SN2 reaction and aprotic solventsfavours SN1 reactions?
you have it backwards. SN2: you want a polar APROTIC solvent. Protons are bad because they would solvate (surround) and stabilize the nucleophile, making it less reactive. SN1: you want a polar PROTIC solvent. Protons are good because they will solvate (surround) and stabilize the leaving group as it leaves. This lowers the energy of the transition state and makes the reaction go faster. a final teaching point: recognize that your question essentially is about what makes the reaction go faster, which is a question of KINETICS, NOT THERMODYNAMICS (if you want to be good at orgo, this concept is VERY IMPORTANT). You will make the reaction go faster by stabilizing the transition state of the rate limiting step. The transition state of the rate limiting step in an SN1 reaction is the leaving group leaving (the nucleophile is NOT involved, therefore, it does not matter that it is solvated). That of an SN2 reaction is the nucleophile attacking the carbon center as the leaving group is leaving (the nucleophile IS involved, so it must not be solvated).
Which is a better leaving group cyanide ion or chloride ion?
Cl- is the superior leaving group because halides form the most stable anions. The stability of an anion reflects its ability to bear a negative charge and accept electrons, which is the function of a good leaving group.
Why are aniline derivatives used in haircoloring and what are they?
Aniline derivatives are derivatives of aniline (phenylamine, C6H5NH2). Aniline is used in an incredibly wide variety of chemical products. You may have heard of the chemical company BASF; the "A" stands for aniline, which is an indication of how important that single compound is to the chemical industry. (The "S" stands for "soda", i.e. sodium hydroxide, another important raw material.) Among other things, it can be used to produce an enormous number of different highly colored materials that can be used as dyes. It's hardly surprising that some of them might be used in hair coloring.
How do you tell if your leather couch is aniline leather?
There are several tests you can do to ascertain this. Moisture test: Put a drop of water on your leather (test in a hidden area first) - don't worry water is good for leather so will not damage it. If the water soaks into the leather and goes dark you have an aniline style leather. If the water sits on the surface you have a coated leather of some sort. Some aniline style leathers will have a finish on them which will slow down the rate of absorption. Scratch Test: Most aniline leathers will scratch with your finger nail and leave a mark These two tests are part of a 5 step process used as an industry standard for testing leather.
