What is going on from compound B to compound C? Can you please select all the options that apply
Compound D and compound E are in equilibrium. Write a stepwise mechanism from compound D to compound E showing ALL intermediates. Use curved arrows to symbolize the flow of electrons to show how each of the intermediates and product are formed. Show necessary lone pairs and all formal charges. Lastly explain which compound (D or E) will be in higher concentration.
Give the reagents and conditions necessary for the following conversion.
A to B, B to D, B to C, B to E, E to F, E to G, G to H, H to I. Hence deduce the name and structural formula of the compounds C and I.
Compare the procedure for converting F and E to G.
