- What are products formed from the below reaction? Draw the stereoisomers and name them. (There are two different constitutional isomers and each constitutional isomer has 2^n stereoisomers.) Please solve the problem in detail.arrow_forwardDraw the products of these reactions clearly showing stereochemistry in each case if necessary. If the product is formed as a racemic mixture, clearly draw one stereoisomer with dash/wedge bonds and write “+en”. Circle whether each reaction occurs by an SN1 or SN2 pathway.arrow_forwardConsider compound I below, which is structurally related to a natural product that was isolated from an extract of a Caribbean marine sponge (See J. Chem. Soc. 1994, 116, 6015). Answer the following questions about this compound (please explain answers) How many double bonds with E stereochemistry are present? _________ How many double bonds with Z stereochemistry are present? _________arrow_forward
- The bicyclo [3.1.0] hexane ring system, highlighted in compound 3, is found in several natural products, including sabinene, a compound partially responsible for the flavor of ground black pepper. One method for preparing this ring system involves the conversion of compound 1 to compound 2, as shown below. Draw the structure of compound 2 and provide a reasonable mechanism for its formation. Add any remaining curved arrows to complete step one of the mechanism, and modify the given drawing as needed to show the intermediate that is formed in this step.arrow_forwardConsider the following reaction scheme: (i) Identify compounds J and K. (ii) Draw a curved arrow mechanism that accounts for the formation of J [please make sure your mechanism takes into account stereochemical considerations]. please can you show how you decide the stereochemistryarrow_forwardGiven that an E2 reaction proceeds with anti periplanar stereochemistry, draw the products of each elimination. The alkyl halides in (a) and (b) are diastereomers of each other. How are the products of these two reactions related? Recall from Section 3.2A that C6H5 −is a phenyl group, a benzene ring bonded to another group.arrow_forward
- Describe the following chemical reactions as SN1, SN2, E1 and W2. Draw a curved arrow mechanism for each reaction.arrow_forwardDraw the major organic product for the reaction of this compound with PBr3. What type of mechanism is involved in this transformation?arrow_forwardDraw the products for the following chemical reactions, indicating stereochemistry wherever applicable. Indicate if the reaction proceeds via SN1 or SN2 mechanismarrow_forward
- Q2: Give the structure of the possible Claisen condensation product from the following reaction .Tell which , If any you would expect to predominate in each case .(a) CH3CO2Et + CH3CH2CO2Et (b) C6H6CO2Et + C6H5CH2CO2Et(c) EtOCO2Et + Cyclohexanones (d) C6H5CHO + CH3CO2Etarrow_forwardDraw the product of this reaction and states its IUPAC name, and states what type of mechanism is occuring (eg. SN1, SN2, E1, E2, etc)?arrow_forwardWhich stereoisomer do you predict will undergo elimination on treatment with sodium ethoxide in ethanol at the faster rate?arrow_forward
