Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The product of given electrocyclic reaction is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: Electrocyclic reactions involve ring opening or ring closure in a conjugated polyene. According to Woodward-Hoffmann rules, the polyene containing even number of bonds in thermal conditions undergoes reaction in conrotatory fashion and polyene containing odd number of bonds undergo reaction in disrotatory fashion.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The product of given electrocyclic reaction is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: Electrocyclic reactions involve ring opening or ring closure in a conjugated polyene. According to Woodward-Hoffmann rules, the polyene containing even number of bonds in photochemical conditions undergoes reaction in disrotatory fashion and polyene containing odd number of bonds undergo reaction in conrotatory fashion.

best condition for the reaction (1r,2s)-1 bromo-2methylcyclohexane->(s)3-methylcyclohex-1ene
A student adds NBS to a solution of 1-methylcyclohexene and irradiates the mixture with a sunlamp until all the NBS has reacted. After a careful distillation, the product mixture contains two major products of formula C7H11Br. (a)Rank these three intermediates from most stable to least stable.
