(a)
Interpretation:
All three carbocation intermediates possible from protonation of the given triene are to be drawn. The most stable carbocation intermediate among them is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
In an electrophilic addition of acid to a conjugated
(b)
Interpretation:
All halogenated products formed by attack of
Concept introduction:
In an electrophilic addition of acid to a conjugated alkene,
(c)
Interpretation:
The product of the given reaction that is expected to be formed in the greatest amount at low temperature is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
At low temperatures, electrophilic addition to a conjugated triene takes place under kinetic control, so the major product is the one that is produced most rapidly.
(d)
Interpretation:
The product of the given reaction that is expected to be formed in the greatest amount at high temperature is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
At high temperatures, electrophilic addition to a conjugated triene takes place under
