Question
Chapter 13.3, Problem 13.8P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The double bonds of bombykol should be labeled as cis or trans.
Concept Introduction:
The rotation around the carbon atoms of a double bond is restricted. So, groups on one side of the double bond cannot rotate to the other side. Depending on the side of the alkyl group attached to the double bond, there are two stereoisomers as cis and trans. Trans indicates that the alkyl groups are on opposing sides and cis indicates that the alkyl groups are on same side.

Based on the structures of lycopene and β-carotene, which are two chemicals found in another common vegetable, the tomato, answer the following questions:
1. Are they stereoisomers, constitutional isomers or not even isomers?
2. Do you expect them to be relatively polar or nonpolar substances? Why?
3. How many double bonds are in lycopene? How many in β -carotene?
4. As lycopene is transformed into β -carotene, how many pi electrons from the double bonds are transformed into single bonds? How many new single bonds are being formed in β -carotene?
5. The first step of a possible mechanism for the ring closure in the transformation is outlined below (only part of the structure is shown for simplicity). Draw the product that results from this arrow pushing mechanism. Be sure to include any formal charges that arise from the carbon atoms.
"A cis alkene is more polar than a trans alkene, giving it a slightlyhigher boiling point and making it more soluble in polar solvents" Explain this statement ?
Ethanol, C2H5OH, and propane, C3H8, have approximately the same molar mass, yet ethanol has a much higher boiling point. Briefly explain why.
Ethanol, C2H5OH, and dimethyl ether, CH3OCH3, have the same molar mass, yet ethanol has a much higher boiling point. Briefly explain why.
Write an equation to show the reaction between ethanol, C2H5OH and methyllithium, CH3Li. Draw all non-bonding electrons and show electron flow with curved arrows.
37. Write an equation that shows the reaction between acetic acid (CH3COOH) and triethylamine (CH3CH2)3N. Draw all non-bonding lone electron pairs and show the electron flow with curved arrows.

The question is 2.51 "Draw alternative chair conformations for each substituted cyclohexane and state which chair is more stable." There are then 4 cyclohexanes (labeled a-d). For the "a" cyclohexane, the substituents are arranged as a combination of axial and equatorial in both chair conformations. However, for the "b," "c," and "d," cyclohexanes one chair has only equatorial substituents, and the other chair has only axial substituents. Why is the "a" chair conformation different? https://www.bartleby.com/solution-answer/chapter-2-problem-251p-organic-chemistry-8th-edition/9781305580350/draw-alternative-chair-conformations-for-each-substituted-cyclohexane-and-state-which-chair-is-more/4532cd91-c341-11e9-8385-02ee952b546earrow_forward
