One problem with elimination reactions is that mixtures of products are often formed. For example, treatment of 2-bromo-2-methylbutane with KOH in ethanol yields a mixture of two alkene products. What are their likely structures?
Propose a curved-arrow mechanism to show how ozone (O3) reacts
with a carbon–carbon double bond to form a molozonide, the first intermediate
in ozonolysis.
Evidence that cleavage of 1,2-diols by occurs through a five membered cyclic periodate intermediate is based on kinetic data—the measurement of reaction rates. When diols A and B were prepared and the rates of their reaction withwere measured, it was found that diol A cleaved approximately 1 million times faster than diol B. Make molecular models of A and B and of potential cyclic periodate intermediates, and then explain the kinetic results
Question:Predict the products of the following reactions, showing both regiochemistry and stereochemistry where appropriate:
