12188 15 Methyl red is a dye and can be used as an indicator. It is synthesised by the reaction of dimethylaniline with the diazonium salt of anthranilic acid. O NH2 HO O N N + HO O N HO N N N methyl red (a) Name the reagents used to produce the diazonium ion and the condition under which they are used. [2] (b) (i) Explain why methyl red is a coloured compound. [4] 12188 [Turn over (ii) Methyl red is red in its acidic form and yellow in its basic form. N H3C CH3 N N COO− H H3C CH3 COO− N N N + +H+ −H+ ⇌ basic form acidic form Suggest why the two forms have different colours. [2] (c) Methyl red is insoluble in water. It forms a sodium salt which has a solubility of 800 mg in 1 cm3 of water. Explain why methyl red is insoluble in water but the sodium salt is soluble in water. [2] 12188 (d) The synthesis of anthranilic acid may be carried out as follows. CH3 CH3 NO2 COOH NO2 COOH NH2 (i) Name the reagents used to carry out the nitration of methylbenzene. [2] (ii) The reagent used to oxidise the 2-methylnitrobenzene is acidified potassium manganate(VII). State the colour change observed. [2] 12188 (e) The reduction of the nitrobenzoic acid is carried out using tin and concentrated hydrochloric acid. (i) Write the equation for the reaction of tin with hydrochloric acid. [2] (ii) The anthranilic acid is obtained as the phenylammonium salt. Draw the structure of the salt and explain why the addition of sodium hydroxide solution liberates the amino group but does not produce anthranilic acid.
