- Consider the by-products that might be formed by E1 and/or E2 processes in the reaction of 2-methyl-2-butanol with HCl. Provide structures for these E1 and/or E2 products. Which alkene would be favored and why?arrow_forwardwhat would a detailed step-by-step mechanism be for a reaction between bromine and trans-stilbene if the solvent, ethanol, is a stronger nucleophile than the bromide ions?arrow_forwardUsing clear illustrations, discuss the main differences between E1 and E2 mechanisms in organic reactions.arrow_forward
- Write the mechanism for the following reactions :arrow_forwardwhy does acid-catalyzed bromination of 2-pentanone stop at the mono-bromo derivative? write a detailed mechanism that clearly supports thisarrow_forwardUnderstanding different substitution and elimination pathways gives useful insight into chemical mechanisms and pathways. Give the different important aspects of the Sn1, Sn2, E1, E2, and E2cB reactions.arrow_forward
- Draw complete mechanisms that explain the resultant product distributions observed for the reactions of tert-butyl alcohol and 1-butanol under the reaction conditions of this experiment.arrow_forwardCompare the function of the solvent (methanol) in the E1 and SN1 reactions.arrow_forwardWhat would be the mechanism for the acylation of iodobenzene to form the major product with the data above?arrow_forward
- The E1 mechanism (unimolecular elimination) of Elimination ?arrow_forwardAnilinium ion, PhNH3+ , Catalyze semicarbazone formation from benzaldhyde much more effectively than would be expected on the basis of its strength as an acid. Explain.arrow_forwardIndicate the stereoisomer that would be obtained in greatest yield in an E2 reaction for 3-bromo-3,4-diemethylhexane.arrow_forward
