Answer 1

You can create a custom JsonConverter.

Using custom JsonConverter in order to alter the serialization of the portion of an object

Example

public class Customer
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

public class Client
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

public class URequest
{

    [JsonProperty(NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore)]
    public string userName { get; set; }

    [JsonProperty(NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore)]
    public string password { get; set; }

    [JsonIgnore]
    public IList requestList { get; set; }

}

public class URequestConverter : JsonConverter
{
    public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType)
    {
        return (objectType == typeof(URequest));
    }

    public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        var objectType = value.GetType().GetGenericArguments()[0];
        URequest typedValue = (URequest) value;

        JObject containerObj = JObject.FromObject(value);

        containerObj.Add($"{objectType.Name.ToLower()}List", JToken.FromObject(typedValue.requestList));
        containerObj.WriteTo(writer);
    }

    public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }
}

You can use it like this

    [TestMethod]
    public void TestMethod1()
    {
        URequest request = new URequest();
        request.password = "test";
        request.userName = "user";
        request.requestList = new List();

        request.requestList.Add(new Customer() { Name = "customer" });

        JsonSerializerSettings settings = new JsonSerializerSettings();
        settings.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
        settings.Converters.Add(new URequestConverter());

        Console.WriteLine(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(request, settings));
    }
