- The following bicyclic ketone has two -carbons and three -hydrogens. When this molecule is treated with D2O in the presence of an acid catalyst, only two of the three -hydrogens exchange with deuterium. The -hydrogen at the bridgehead does not exchange. How do you account for the fact that two -hydrogens do exchange but the third does not? You will find it helpful to build models of the enols by which exchange of -hydrogens occurs.arrow_forwardWith organolithium and organomagnesium compounds, approach to the carbonyl carbon from the less hindered direction is generally preferred.

Reduction can be defined in many different ways: oneof which is the increase in hydrogen atoms in the compound. One of the most important reactions forsynthesizing primary and secondary alcohols is through the reduction of aldehydes and ketones byadding H2 across carbonyl double bond. One of the most common methods to achieve thistransformation is through a metal hydride delivery agent such as lithium aluminum hydride (LAH) orsodium borohydride (NaBH4).The first step in this reaction is the transfer of a hydride ion to the carbon of the carbonyl. The hydrideacts as a nucleophile and attacks the carbon of the carbonyl. The hydride can either come in via anaxial attack or an equatorial attack depending on steric factors and the placement of other substituentson the ring. Below is the…arrow_forward
- The base-promoted rearrangement of an -haloketone to a carboxylic acid, known as the Favorskii rearrangement, is illustrated by the conversion of 2-chlorocyclohexanone to cyclopentanecarboxylic acid.

- How is the mechanism for oxymercuration/demercuration reactions of alkenes understood? How are the (Markovnikov) products predicted and what reagents would you need to use to incorporate this reaction into a multistep synthesis strategy. Finally, what makes this a potentially more useful way to synthesize alcohols from alkenes than simple acid hydration?arrow_forwardCompelling evidence for the existence of a tetrahedral intermediate in nucleophilic acyl substitution was obtained in a series of elegant experiments carried out by Myron Bender in 1951. The key experiment was the reaction of aqueous−OH with ethyl benzoate (C6H5COOCH2CH3) labeled at the carbonyl oxygen with 18O. Bender did not allow the hydrolysis to go to completion, and then examined the presence of a label in the recovered starting material. He found that some of the recovered ethyl benzoate no longer contained a label at the carbonyl oxygen. With reference to the accepted mechanism of nucleophllic acyl substitution, explain how this provides evidence for a tetrahedral intermediate.arrow_forward
