Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The constitutional isomer formed by the reaction of the given alkene with
Concept introduction: The addition of Halogens to
(b)
Interpretation: The constitutional isomer formed by the reaction of the given alkene with
Concept introduction: The reaction of alkene with halogen and water results in the formation of halohydrin product.
The general steps for the formation of halohydrin are stated below:
Ø The first step is the attack of halide ion to form a halonium ion.
Ø The second step is the attack of water from back side to opens the halonium ion.
Ø The last step is deprotonation to give the halohydrin product.
(c)
Interpretation: The constitutional isomer formed by the reaction of the given alkene with
Concept introduction: The reaction of alkene with halogen and methanol results in the formation of methoxy product.
The general steps for the formation of desired product are stated below:
Ø The first step is the attack of halide ion to form a halonium ion.
Ø The second step is the attack of methanol from back side to open the halonium ion.
Ø The last step is deprotonation to give the desired product.

Organic Chemistry
- There are 17 possible alkene isomers with the formula C6H12. Draw structures of the five isomers in which the longest chain has six carbon atoms, and give the name of each. Are any of these isomers chiral? (There are also eight isomers in which the longest chain has five carbon atoms, and four isomers in which the longest chain has four carbon atoms. How many can you find?)arrow_forward. With very reactive agents, such as the halogen elements, alkanes undergo reactions, whereby a new atom rep laces one or more hydrogen atoms of the alkane.arrow_forwardDefine Acyclic Alkanes Having One to Five C Atoms ?arrow_forward
- The sex attractant of the female tiger moth is an alkane of molecular formula C 18H 38. Is this molecule an acyclic alkane or a cycloalkane?arrow_forwardGive the structure of an alkane that fi ts each description. a. an alkane that contains only 1 ° and 4 ° carbons b. a cycloalkane that contains only 2 ° carbons c. an alkane of molecular formula C 6H 14 that contains a 4 ° carbon d. a cycloalkane that contains 2 ° and 3 ° carbonsarrow_forwardCompounds A and B are isomers of the molecular formula C9H19Br. Both yield the same alkene C in an elimination reaction. Hydrogenation of C yields the product 2,3,3,4 tetramethyl pentane. What are the structures of A, B, and C?arrow_forward
