All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeWrite a mechanism that explains the formation of the following product. In your mechanism, explain the cause of the rearrangement, and explain the failure to form the Zaitsev product.
Propose mechanisms and draw reaction-energy diagrams for the following reactions. Pay particular attention to the structures of any transition states and intermediates. Compare the reaction-energy diagrams for the two reactions and explain the differences.
Question:
Show how you would prepare cyclohexene from each compound.
(a) cyclohexanol
(b) cyclohexyl bromide
(c) cyclohexane (not by dehydrogenation)
For each reaction, decide whether substitution or elimination (or both) is possible, and predict the product you expect. Label the major products.
(a) 1 - bromo - 1 - methylcyclohexane + NaOH in acetone
(b) 1 - bromo - 1 - methylcyclohexane + triethylamine (Et3N:)
(c) chlorocyclohexane + NaOCH3 in CH3OH
(d) chlorocyclohexane + NaOC(CH3) in (CH3)3COH
Propose mechanisms for the following reactions. Additional products may be formed, but your mechanism only needs to explain the products shown.
