- Reaction of but-1-ene with HBr gives two products in unequal amounts. In each case, identify the two products, state which is the major product, explain why it is the major product and give the mechanism for its formation.arrow_forward(CH3)2C=CHCH2CH3 and Ozone (o)3 /Zn product?arrow_forwardWhen 1 mole of buta-1,3-diene reacts with 1 mole of HBr, both 3-bromobut-1-ene and 1-bromobut-2-ene are formed. Propose a mechanism to account for this mixture of products.arrow_forward
- Please give the main substitution product for each of the following reactions, and indicate the dominant mechanism: (a) 1-bromopropane + NaOCH3 → (b) 3-bromo-3-methylpentane + NaOC2H5 →arrow_forwardPeroxides are often added to free-radical reactions as initiators because the oxygen–oxygen bond cleaves homolytically rather easily. For example, the bond-dissociation enthalpy of the O¬O bond in hydrogen peroxide (H¬O¬O¬H) is only 213 kJ>mol (51 kcal>mol). Give a mechanism for the hydrogen peroxide-initiated reaction of cyclopentane with chlorine. The BDE for HO¬Cl is 210 kJ>mol (50 kcal>mol).arrow_forwardWrite the appropriate reagents, conditions and products for the following electrophilic aromatic substitutions: COOH H₂ (3) Pt NO₂ ~arrow_forward
- Provide the product and mechanism for the reaction: ОН Cro, H,SO, H,0arrow_forward1,3- Butadiene undergoes an electrophilic addition with Hbr. Complete the steps in the mechanism to produce the product.arrow_forwardTreatment of propadiene (an allene) with hydrogen bromide produces 2-bromopropene as the major product. This suggests that the more stable carbocation intermediate is produced by the addition of a proton to Br HBr. H2C=C=CH, H3C CH2 a terminal carbon rather than to the central carbon. Propadiene 2-Bromopropene (a) Draw both carbocation intermediates that can be produced by the addition of a proton to the allene. (b) Explain the relative stabilities of those intermediates. Hint: Draw the orbital picture of the intermediates and consider whether the CH, groups in propadiene are in the same plane.arrow_forward
- Consider an E2 reaction between (2-bromoethyl)cyclohexane and base potassium tert-butoxide. Describe the rate of elimination when each of the following changes occurred: (i) The base is changed to sodium hydroxide. (ii) The halogen atom of alkyl halide is replaced by chlorine.arrow_forward1) How would you synthesize the compound shown below by using a 2 steps reaction scheme with one of the steps being a Diels Alder reaction? For full credit: Provide the reagents used in each step Draw the bond line structures for the reactants and the major organic product obtained in each step. H ● ● COCH 3 Draw the mechanism for the Diels Alder reaction from the reaction scheme proposed above. For full credit use the correct arrows to show the flow of electrons AND clearly label the diene and the dienophile of the reaction.arrow_forward4eplease give the resulting product and explainarrow_forward
