For each of the questions below, fill in the blank. For those blanks that correspond to products, fill in the major product. For blanks corresponding to starting materials or reagents, fill in the appropriate compounds to give the product in highest yield.
Provide the E2 mechanism for β-elimination reactionemploying 2-chloro-2-methylbutane to prepare 2-methyl-2-butene and 2-methyl-1-butene reaction. Use the actual structures of thereactants and products. Explain which of the alkenes is the major product ofthis reaction ?
Rearrangements can occur during the dehydration of 1° alcohols even though no 1° carbocation is formed—that is, a 1,2-shift occurs as the C— OH2+ bond is broken, forming a more stable 2° or 3° carbocation, as shown in Equation [1]. Using this information, draw a stepwise mechanism for the reaction shown in Equation [2]. We will see another example of this type of rearrangement in Section 16.5C.
Complete the reaction scheme below with the starting material and reagent required to form the product shown as the only major carbon-containing product.
In the presence of acid such as H2SO4, 3,4-dimethyl-1-pentene undergoes isomerization to 2,3-dimethyl-2-pentene (shown below). Write a complete mechanism, showing all steps and using curved arrows to explain this observation.

Can this alcohol be synthesized selectively by hydroboration-oxidation of an alkene?
NH4Cl is sometimes preferred instead of HCl or H2SO4 for “acid” work-up after Grignard reactions, particularly when the expected and desired product is a tertiary alcohol: why?

When 1,2-cyclohexanediol is dehydrated in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid, the major product is not an alkene. Instead, you get cyclohexanone. Write a reasonable and detailed mechanism for the dehydration of 1,2-cyclohexanediol to form cyclohexanone. Use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons and draw the structures of all intermediates and byproducts formed in the course of this reaction as well as any alternative resonance structures that will help you to account for the formation of the major product observed in this reaction.
How is the mechanism for oxymercuration/demercuration reactions of alkenes understood? How are the (Markovnikov) products predicted and what reagents would you need to use to incorporate this reaction into a multistep synthesis strategy. Finally, what makes this a potentially more useful way to synthesize alcohols from alkenes than simple acid hydration?
