Melamine, used as a fire retardant and a component of the writing surface of white boards, can be prepared from s-trichlorotriazine through a series of SNAr reactions with ammonia. The first substitution takes place rapidly at room temperature. The second substitution takes place near 100 Â°C, and the third substitution requires even higher temperature and pressure. Provide an explanation fatr this reactivity.
Show the curved-arrow mechanism for the first step, and the structure of the cyclic intermediate formed, when cyclopentene in treated with KMnO4 .

Reaction of 2° alcohol A with HCl forms three alkyl chlorides, all of whichresult from rearrangement of the 2° carbocation initially formed. Draw thestructures of these products and a mechanism that illustrates how eachis formed.
An inexperienced graduate student treated dec-5-ene with borane in THF, placed the flask in a refrigerator, and left for aparty. When he returned from the party, he discovered that the refrigerator was broken and that it had gotten quite warminside. Although all the THF had evaporated from the flask, he treated the residue with basic hydrogen peroxide. Tohis surprise, he recovered a fair yield of decan-1-ol. Use a mechanism to show how this reaction might have occurred.(Hint: The addition of BH3 is reversible.)
