Chapter 26, Problem 26.56P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The explanation for the conversion of A to B is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Alkene metathesis generally known as olefin metathesis occurs in the presence of Grubbs catalyst. The ring-closing metathesis (RCM) by Grubbs catalyst occurs if the starting material is diene. This reaction is facilitated under the high-dilution condition as it favors intramolecular metathesis instead of intermolecular metathesis.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The two products formed by dienyne metathesis of C are to be drawn.

Dienynes undergo metathesis to afford fused bicyclic ring systems. (a) Explain how A is converted to B. (b) Keeping this reaction in mind, draw the two products formed by dienyne metathesis of C.
Provide the missing starting material, reactant or product. Show appropriate stereochemistry. a) b)
A. Arrange the following radicals in order of decreasing rate of bromination. Justify your answer. B. Trehalose and isomaltose are both dimers of glucose. However, they have considerablydifferent reactivities. Concisely explain why these differences are observed. -Isomaltose is a reducing sugar while trehalose is not.-Trehalose is very resistant to acid hydrolysis while isomaltose can be acid-hydrolyzed withease.
