When trans-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, cyclohexene oxide is the product. However, when cis-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, the product is cyclohexanone.
Write the mechanism for each of the two reactions.
Trichloroisocyanuric acid, TCICA, also known as “swimming pool chlorine,” is a stable solid that oxidizes alcohols, following a mechanism similar to oxidation by HOCl. No reaction occurs between TCICA and the alcohol (in a solvent such as acetonitrile) until one drop of HCl(aq) is added, whereupon the reaction is over in a few minutes. Write the mechanism for this oxidation that shows the key role of the acid catalyst. Show the oxidation of just one alcohol, not three.
Non-conjugated β,γ-unsaturated ketones, such as 3-cyclohexenone, as in acid-catalysed equilibrium with their α,β-unsaturated isomers. The mechanism has several intermediates.
Draw the structure of the second reaction intermediate in the conversion of 3-cyclohexenone to 2-cyclohexenone. This intermediate is a neutral compound.
