Yes, the Gabriel synthesis is a stereospecific reaction.
No, toluene cannot be directly converted to aniline by the Gabriel synthesis. The Gabriel synthesis involves the reaction of an alkyl halide with potassium phthalimide to form an alkyl phthalimide intermediate, which is then converted to the primary amine through a nucleophilic substitution reaction. Toluene does not contain a suitable leaving group for this type of reaction.
A stereospecific chemical reaction is one where the relative spatial arrangement of atoms in the reactant molecules determines the spatial arrangement of atoms in the products. This means that the reaction follows a specific pathway based on the stereochemistry of the molecules involved.
In gabriel synthesis on primary amines are formed. Secondary and tertiary amines are not formed this yields in pure rimary amine product. Hence Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is preferred for synthesising primary amines
Formation reaction.
stereoselective reactions: choice of pathway leading to different stereoisomer from the same starting material. stereospecific reactions: the mechanism means that the stereochemistry of the product is determined by the steriochemistry of the starting material.
A stereospecific chemical reaction is one that utilizes either the R or the L stereoisomer of a chemical.

This type of reaction is known as a synthesis or combination reaction. It involves the combination of two or more substances to form a single product. An example is the reaction of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas to form water.
synthesis reaction
Is this reaction an illustration of synthesis or digestion
When from two substances is obtained a new substance the reaction is called synthesis.
a synthesis reaction, also called a combination reaction.
Frying an egg is a synthesis reaction. The combination of heat which causes a reaction in the egg whites creates a chemical reaction. When you take these simple components and create a complex reaction this is a prime example of a synthesis reaction.
No, a decomposition reaction is the opposite of a synthesis reaction. In a decomposition reaction, a compound breaks down into simpler substances, while in a synthesis reaction, simpler substances combine to form a more complex compound.
