Which is the better retrosynthesis for the given target molecule? Explain, and provide a one-step synthesis of the target molecule. A A is the better starting material because B can form both E and Z alkenes. B A is the better starting material because it will produce only the desired target molecule. C B is the better starting material because only B has β protons in the trans position. D B is the better starting material because A can form both E and Z alkenes. E B is the better starting material because it will produce only the desired target molecule. F A is the better starting material because only A has β protons in the trans position.
For problem 8.17, all of the reactions will be SN2. For each reaction, identify and evaluate each nucleophile (strong? weak? Strong or weak as a base?) Also, evaluate each solvent as polar protic or polar aprotic. I recommend drawing the structure of each solvent.
Why does increasing alkyl substitution increase the rate of an E2 reaction?
Why we need step 3 before step 4? a. Because the nitro group increases the electrophilicity at the ortho positions which is where the bromine is added. b. Because the amine group is a strong ortho, para director which is what controls the regiochemical outcome of this bromination. c. Step 4 is unessesary. The symmetry of compound 3 allows for the bromination to be regioselective and give compound 5. 5. There will be a mixture of products because there is no selectivity for a major product.
How does changing the base from −OH to H2O affect the rate of an E2 reaction?
