Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Each reacting species is to be labeled as either “electron rich” or “electron poor”. Appropriate curved arrows are to be drawn, and the type of the elementary step is to be named under the each reaction arrow for the given reaction.

- Draw the complete mechanism of each pair of reactants including any favorable rearrangements and all important resonance structures of all intermediates. a. Which reaction has a lower PE carbocation intermediate? b. Draw an energy diagram showing the reaction profiles of both reactions in the previous question. Use a dotted line for the first pair of reactants and a solid line for the second pair of reactants. (Assume the energy of the starting materials and products are the same for both pairs and the reactions are neither uphill nor downhill on net. c. Mark points on the energy diagram corresponding to each carbocation in your mechanisms.arrow_forwardWhich of the following mechanisms is consistent with the reaction profile shown above? Circle the correct mechanism and justify your choice.arrow_forwardBy following the curved red arrows, draw the product(s) of each of the following reaction steps:arrow_forward
- By following the curved red arrows, draw the product(s) of each of the following reaction steps. Also indicate which species is the electrophile and which is the nucleophile.arrow_forwardDraw the missing reactant for the following reactionarrow_forwardshow the arrow pushing and product for this reactionarrow_forward
- Help please. Draw the curved arrow notation and products for the each elementary step described by the sequence shown here.Note that the products of each step should be used as the reactants in the next step, and you may need to draw in additional reagents as directed. Remember to click on each box to see step-specific instructions. Draw H3CH2C–, and then add the curved arrow notation showing a nucleophilic addition.arrow_forwardPlease help me draw the MAJOR product(s) of the this reaction.arrow_forwardDraw the full electron pushing mechanism for the reaction depicted including ALL intermediates (with lone pairs and formal charges).
