- In the structure of 4‑isopropyl‑2,4,5‑trimethylheptane, identify the primary (p), secondary (s), and tertiary (t) hydrogens.arrow_forwardAnalyze the following structure of limonene in terms of isoprene units joined by head-to-tail linkages. (1) How many isoprene units are there in a limonene molecule? (2) Classify limonene as a monoterpene (one terpene unit), a sesquiterpene (1.5 terpene units), or a diterpene (2 terpene units).arrow_forwardHow do you account for the difference in energies between the two staggered conformations of 1,2-dichloroethane? How about for the two eclipsed conformations? Draw all four conformations and, on your drawing, indicate sources of strain – torsional, steric (gauche), steric eclipsed.arrow_forward
- Excluding compounds that contain methyl or ethyl groups, write structural formulas for all the bicyclic isomers of (a) C5H8 and (b) C6H10.arrow_forwardThe boiling points for a set of compounds in a homologous series can be qualitatively predicted using intermolecular force strengths. Using their condensed structural formulas, rank the homologous series for a set of alkanes by their boiling point.arrow_forwardBorneol, camphor, and isoborneol belong to a family of compounds referred to as terpenes. Read the section on terpenes and terpenoids in your textbook, then, (a) identify the isoprene units in each of the following compounds, and (b) classify each of the compounds as a monoterpene, sesquiterpene, diterpene, triterpene, 2. etc. limonene camphor B-carotenearrow_forward
- Write TRUE if the BOLD word/phrase makes the statement correct. Otherwise, write the correct WORD/PHRASE that will make the statement true. If there are two bold words/phrases in a number, write your answer for EACH of the bold words/phrases. 1. The anti-staggered conformation of butane, in which the methyl groups have a dihedral angle of less than 180°, has the highest energy. 2. The formation of 2-methylpropene as side product in the synthesis of tert-butyl chloride is a nucleophilic substitution reaction. 3. The generation of tertiary carbocation is the rate-determining step in tert-butyl chloride synthesis.arrow_forwardCharacterize EACH of the three given statements as being TRUE or FALSE and then indicate the collective true - false status of the statements using the choices. (1) Alcohols have higher boiling points than alkanes of similar molecular mass because of hydrogen bonding. (2) Polyols have similar boiling points to tertiary alcohols. (3) Primary and secondary alcohols give the same type of product when subjected to mild oxidizing agents. Group of answer choices All three statements are true. Two of the three statements are true. Only one of the statements is true. None of the statements are true.arrow_forward(a) Show the isoprene units in each of the following terpenes.(b) Classify each as a monoterpene, sesquiterpene, terpene,etc.arrow_forward
- Use examples to clearly illustrate the meaning of the following terms and expression: (b) Constitutional isomers with different positions of functional groupsarrow_forwardThe boiling points for a set of compounds in a homologous series can be qualitatively predicted using intermolecular force strength. Using their condensed structural formulas, rank the homologous series set of alkanes by their boiling point.arrow_forwardDraw Newman projections for the anti, eclipsed, gauche and fully eclipsed conformations of Butane. Indicate their relative stabilities and the reasons for your ranking-need to discuss the stresses involved in each case. Using suitable specific conformers of specific structures as examples, explain the difference between (a) angle strain (b) torsional strain and (c) steric strain. Need to draw the confomers and structures 4) Draw the most stable conformers using chair structures of the following: (c) cis-1,2-Dibromocyclohexane (d) trans-1,2-Dibromocyclohexane (e) cis-Decalin (f) trans-Decalin . Draw the most stable conformers of trans-1-Bromo-4-methylcyclohexane and cis-1-Bromo-4-methylcyclohexane. Which is more stable? Explain the reason for your answer. Need to include a discussion of 1,3-Diaxial interactionarrow_forward
