Give the organic product(s) formed in each of the following reactions. When necessary, draw a 3D representation for the product molecule showing its correct configuration.
A problem often encountered in the oxidation of primary alcohols to acids is that esters are sometimes produced as by-products. For example, oxidation of ethanol yields acetic acid and ethyl acetate: Propose a mechanism to account for the formation of ethyl acetate. Take into account the reversible reaction between aldehydes and alcohols:
Like alcohols, ethers undergo α cleavage by breaking a carbon–carbon bond between an alkyl group and the carbon bonded to the ether oxygen atom; that is, the red C–C bond in R–CH2OR' is broken. With this in mind, propose structures for the fragments formed by α cleavage of (CH3)2CHCH2OCH2CH3. Suggest a reason why an ether fragments by α cleavage.
For the following, complete the reactions with the predominant product or products. You must indicate stereochemistry with wedges and dashes. If a racemic mixture is created, you must write "racemic" under the structures.
Draw the organic product(s) of the following reaction. Please give a clear and detailed image.
The most stable conformation of most aldopyranoses is one in which the largest group, the CH2OH group, is equatorial. However, alpha-D-idopyranose exists primarily in a conformation with an axial CH2OH group. Write formulas for the two chair conformations of a-D-idopyranose (one with the CH2OH group axial and one with the CH2OH group equatorial) and provide an explanation
The conversion of alcohols into alkyl halides by reaction with hydrogen halides is an example of a Nucleophilic Substitution Reaction. This kind of reaction can proceed by two different mechanisms depending on the structure of alcohol substrates used. Generally, primary alcohols are substituted via SN2 mechanism, while secondary and tertiary alcohols undergo SN1 mechanism. Consider the following reaction given in the picture below and the questions in the picture too.
The proper reaction scheme by indicating the reactant structure, all necessary reagents, or the major organic product(s) for each indicated transformation.
