- What other alkene is also formed along with Y in Sample Problem 9.3? What alkenes would form from X if no carbocation rearrangement occurred?arrow_forwardWhich alkene in each pair is more stable?arrow_forwardThe use of curved arrows is a powerful tool that illustrates even complex reactions. a.Add curved arrows to show how carbocation A is converted to carbocation B. Label each new σ bond formed. Similar reactions have been used in elegant syntheses of steroids. b.Draw the product by following the curved arrows. This reaction is an example of a [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement, as we will learn in Chapter 25.arrow_forward
- Addition of HCl to alkene X forms two alkyl halides Y and Z. (A) Label Y and Z as a kinetic or thermodynamic product and explain why. (B) Explain why the addition of HCl occurs at the exocyclic C=C, rather than the other C=Carrow_forwardWhat other alkene is also formed along with Y in Sample Problem 9.3 (Attached) ? What alkenes would form from X if no carbocation rearrangement occurred?arrow_forwardWhich nucleophile would prefer simple addition over conjugate addition? CH3MgBr NaCN CH3CH2NH2 (CH3CH2)2CuLiarrow_forward
- 1. Which among these would be the most stable carbocation?a. Allylicb. Vinylicc. Primaryd. Secondary2. What is the primary reason for the stability of tertiary carbocations?a. Free rotationb. Resonancec. Hyperconjugationarrow_forwardCan someone explain why the answer is D and not C. I need help with the stereochemistry. Thank youarrow_forwardMarkovnikov Addition requires carbocation formation. T or F Markovnikov addition refers to both regiochemistry and stereochemistry. T or F Both oxymercuration-demercuration and hydroboration-oxidation both occur with a concerted syn addition as their first step. T or F Stereochemistry and regiochemistry are important when choosing from the 3 different sets of hydration reagents. T or Farrow_forward
- Consider a reaction where cis-but-2-ene is treated with sO followed by NaHSO/H, O. Draw the structure of one product that is formed in the reaction, including correct stereochemistry.arrow_forwardClassify each reaction as an electrocyclic reaction, a cycloaddition, or a sigmatropic rearrangement. Label the σ bonds that are broken or formed in each reactionarrow_forwardDraw the energy diagram for the reaction below showing the transition state (s)arrow_forward
