Question
Chapter 12.9, Problem 10P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A mechanism for the conversion of a Jacobson dimer to the rearranged one shown on treatment with concentrated hydrochloric acid is to be written.
Concept Introduction:
>Regioselectivity of electrophilic addition depends on resonance stabilization of carbocation formed.
>A more stable carbocation is formed more readily than a less stable carbocation.The regioselectivity of addition reactions is controlled by the relative stabilities of the two possible carbocation intermediates formed in the rate determining step.
