Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The fish-hook curved-arrow notation to derive the missing resonance structure is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Resonance is the phenomena of the delocalization of pi electrons to give extra stability to the molecule. This extra stability comes from the distribution of the energy of the molecule in the resonance structures formed.
(b)
Interpretation:
The fishhook mechanism for the co-
Concept introduction:
The co-
(c)
Interpretation:
The reason behind the fact that diene part of the polymer has mostly trans double bond stereochemistry is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The co-polymer is the polymer obtained by the polymerization of two or more different monomer units. The copolymers are usually formed by the condensation polymerization. Some examples of copolymers are nylon and polyethylene.

- I am studying homolytic and heterolytic cleavage. In the halogenation of methane, a methyl radical is formed as an intermediate which indicates homolytic cleavage. Why is the cleavage homolytic and not heterolytic? What is the main determinate of when heterolytic or homolytic cleavage occurs? How big does the electronegativty difference need to be?arrow_forwardCan you provide provide examples and mechanism and the rules?arrow_forwardGive mechanism of actionarrow_forward
- (a) suggest the suitable mechanism and illustrate the stepwise of the (heptyloxy)cyclopentane mechanism. (b) illustrate, and write the mechanism the formation of iodocyclopentane and 1-iodoheptane.arrow_forwardAs you might suspect, B-carotene, C,Hw precursor to vitamin A, was first isolated from carrots. Dilute solutions of B-carotene are yellow, hence its use as a food coloring. In plants, it is almost always present in combination with chlorophyll to assist in the harvesting of the energy of sunlight and to protect the plant against reactive species produced in photo- synthesis. As tree leaves die in the fall, the green of their chlorophyll molecules is replaced by the yellows and reds of carotene and carotene-related molecules. Compare the carbon skeletons of B-carotene and lycopene. What are the similarities? What are the differences? H3C.
