Chapter 23, Problem 29P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A reasonable mechanism for the conversion of cyclohexadienones to phenols under conditions of acid catalysis is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The reaction in which cyclohexadienones are converted into phenols in the presence of an acid catalyst is known as the cyclohexadienone-phenol rearrangement reaction.

The chemical reaction in which the conversion of ketone to alcohol takes place in the presence of an acid catalyst is known as acid-catalyzed reaction.

When bromine is added to two beakers, one containing phenyl isopropyl ether and the other containing cyclohexene, the bromine color in both beakers disappears. What observation could you make while performing this test that would allow you to distinguish the alkene from the aryl ether?
Write the stepwise mechanism for the dehydration of cyclohexanol using sulfuric acid as a catalyst.Explain the function of the sulfuric acid in the mechanism and describe in words each step of the mechanism. Then write the balanced equation for this reaction,showing reactants and products and using for the double arrow showing that the reaction attains equilibrium. Describe in words the reactions and products and explain several different ways that one might use le chatelier's principle to increase the yield of cyclohexene in the reaction.
Determine the structure of the methyl ester and organomagnesium bromide reagents that can be combined to form the following alcohol: Part 1: Draw the bond-line formula for the methyl ester reagent. Disregard stereochemistry. Part 2: Draw the bond-line formula for the organomagnesium bromide reagent. Disregard stereochemistry.
