In the presence of a trace of peroxide or under the influence of ultraviolet light, 1-octene reacts: (a) with \(\mathrm{CHCI}_{3}\) to form \(1,1,1\) -trichlorononane; (b) with \(\mathrm{CHBr}_{3}\) to form \(1,1,3\) -tribromononane; (c) with \(\mathrm{CBrCl}_{3}\) to form \(1,1,1\) -trichloro-3-bromononane; (d) with \(\mathrm{H}-\mathrm{S}-\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{COOH}\) (thioglycolic acid) to yield \(\mathrm{n}-\mathrm{C}_{8} \mathrm{H}_{17}-\mathrm{S}-\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{COOH}\)

What are addition reactions of alkenes?

Treatment of \(\mathrm{C}_{7} \mathrm{H}_{15} \mathrm{Br}\) with strong base gave an alkene mixture that was shown by careful gas chromatographic analysis and separation to consist of three alkenes, \(\mathrm{C}_{7} \mathrm{H}_{14}\), A, B, and C. Catalytic hydrogenation of each alkene gave 2-methythexane. Reaction of A with \(\mathrm{B}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6}\) followed by \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{OH}^{-}\) gave mostly an alcohol, D. Similar reaction of \(\mathrm{B}\) or C gave approximately equal amounts of \(\mathrm{D}\) and an isomeric alcohol \(\mathrm{E}\). What structural assignments can be made for \(\mathrm{A}\) to \(E\) on the basis of these observations? What structural element is left undetermined by these data alone?

Indicate which of the following compounds show geometric (cis-trans) isomerism, draw the isomeric structures, and specify each as \(Z\) or \(E\). (a) 1-butane (g) 2 -pentene (b) 2-butane (h) 1-chloropropene (c) 1,1 -dichloroethene (i) 1 -chloro-2-methy1-2-butene (d) 1,2 -dichloroethene (j) 3 -methy \(1-4\) -ethy \(1-3\) -hexane (e) 2 -methy \(1-2\) -butane (k) 2,4 -hexadiene (f) 1-pentene \(\quad\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CHCH}=\mathrm{CHCH}_{3}\right)\)

Indicate how you would synthesize each of the following compounds from any one of the given organic starting materials and inorganic reagents. Specify reagents and the reaction conditions. Starting materials: propylene, isobutylene.
