2. Draw the mechanism of free radical polymerization that produces tetramer of polyvinyl chlo- ride. Use AIBN (Q1) as to initiate the radical chain reaction. Use coupling of two tetramers to show the termination step. 3. Unsaturated fatty acids readily undergo radical-mediated peroxidation. Describe the propa- gation stage of peroxidation reaction3 by showing peroxidation of oleic acid. Peroxidation of

How would you draw this curved arrow mechanism for this propagation step in the synthesis of a superabsorbent polymer?
In the presence of H3O+, 2-methylpropene oxide undergoes chain-growth polymerization such that nucleophilic attack occurs at the more substituted end of the epoxide. Draw a stepwise mechanism for this process, and explain this regioselectivity.
Which reaction—dehydration synthesis or hydrolysis—converts a polymer to its monomers? Which one convertsmonomers to a polymer? Explain your answer
Radical polymerization of styrene gives a linear polymer. Radical polymerization of a mixture of styrene and 1,4-divinylbenzene gives a cross-linked network polymer of the type shown in Figure 29.1. Show by drawing structural formulas how incorporation of a few percent of 1,4-divinylbenzene in the polymerization mixture gives a cross-linked polymer.
A. Why does acrylic acid polymerization under radical conditions work so well? Explain. B. Predict the impact of using the crosslinker shown below, instead of MBA, on the hardness/rigidity of the polymer. Explain.

For the following steucture, show a mechanism that explains the fragmwntation or rearrangemnt given.
explain in detail the mechanism for the photoinduced step-growth polymerization of n-ethylcarbazole.
Fluoride ion is usually a poor leaving group because it is not very polarizable. Fluorideserves as the leaving group in the Sanger reagent (2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene), used inthe determination of peptide structures (Chapter 24). Explain why fluoride works as aleaving group in this nucleophilic aromatic substitution, even though it is a poor leavinggroup in the SN1 and SN2 mechanisms.
Using the attached molecule and synthesis, please redraw the molecule showing the stereochemistry attained through the synthesis.
One synthetic advantage of olefin metathesis is that the catalyst tolerates a variety of functional groups in the reactant. In a synthesis of the antiinfluenza drug Tamiflu (oseltamivir), ring-closing metathesis was used to prepare the highly functionalized cyclohexene derivative shown. What was the reactant?
