Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The given substituent is ortho-para directors or meta directors are to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
There are two types of functional groups present in the compounds. One is electron withdrawing and another is electron donating. Electron donating groups direct the electrophile to ortho and para positions. Electron withdrawing groups direct the electrophile to meta position.

- 1. What type of reaction is occuring in step 3? (halogenation, hydrohalogenation, reduction, keto–enol tautomerism, dehydrohalogenation, acid-catalyzed hydration, base-catalyzed hydration) 2. Which reagent is necessary for step 3? (Br2, HBr, H2/Pt, NaNH2, H20/H2SO4/HgSO4)arrow_forwardShow how the synthetic scheme developed in Problem 23.67 can be modified to synthesize this triiodobenzoic acid X-ray contrast agent.arrow_forwardThe stereochemistry of the products of reduction depends on the reagent used, as you learned in Sections 20.5 and 20.6. With this in mind, how would you convert 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one [CH3COC(CH3)3] to: (a) racemic 3,3-dimethylbutan-2- ol [CH3CH(OH)C(CH3)3]; (b) only (R)-3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol; (c) only (S)-3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol?arrow_forward
- What is the best choice of reagents to achieve the following reaction? A. SOCl2 (1/2 equivalent) B. KOH (pellets) C. K2SO4 D. PhCO2Naarrow_forwardReaction of (CH3)3CH with Cl2 forms two products: (CH3)2CHCH2Cl (63%) and (CH3)3CCl (37%). Why is the major product formed by cleavage of the stronger 1° C–H bond?arrow_forwardQ4 Which statement below about Sn1 reactions is incorrect? (A) SN1 reactions are stepwise and have intermediates. (B) The slow step in a SN1 reaction is formation of the carbocation intermediate. (C) SN1 reactions have first order kinetics which means only the alkyl halide is involved in the rate limiting step. (D) The products of a SN1 reaction will be a pair of enantiomers. (E) An aprotic solvent is best for Sn1 reactions as they tend to help stabilize carbocation intermediates.arrow_forward
- Which statement best describes the product mixture after (R)-3-chloro-3-methylhexane undergoes an SN1 reaction? a. The product mixture would be 100% R enantiomer b. The product mixture would be 100% S enantiomer c. The product mixture would be racemic d.The product mixture would be 100% cis isomer e.The product mixture would be 100% trans isomerarrow_forwardTunicates are marine animals that are called "sea squirts" because when they are taken out of water, they tend to contract and expel seawater. Lepadiformine is a cytotoxic agent (toxic to cells) isolated from a marine tunicate. During a recent synthesis of lepadiformine, the investigators observed the formation of an interesting by-product (3) while treating diol 1 with a reagent similar in function to PBr3 (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 3390–3400):arrow_forwardThe following reaction has a ΔSsystem < 0 O2(g) → 2O(g) T or F can you explain why this is false?arrow_forward
