Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Movement of electrons should be indicated using curved arrows for the given reaction.
Concept introduction:
Mechanism of the reaction is the step-by-step description of the process by which reactants are changed into products.
Curved arrows show the bonds that are formed and the bonds that are broken in a reaction.
Curved arrows used to understand a reaction mechanism.
Curved arrows are drawn to show how the electrons move as new covalent bonds are formed existing covalent bonds are broken.
Each arrow represents the simultaneous movement of two electrons from a nucleophile towards an electrophile.
The tail of the arrow is positioned where the electrons are in the reactant; the tail always starts at a lone pair of electron or at a bond.
The head of the arrow points to where these same electrons end up in the product; the arrow always points at an atom or a bond.

- Identify the product of each step THEN determine what could be changed to form the product in FEWER steps and create the greatest yield. Please answer all parts of question.arrow_forwardUsing arrows, show the electron rearrangement that takes place in the reaction.arrow_forwardComplete the following reaction by providing missing reactants or products as appropriate. (See image)arrow_forward
- Curved arrows are used to illustrate the flow of electrons. Using the provided starting and product structures, draw the curved electron-pushing arrows for the following reaction. Be sure to account for all bond-breaking and bond-making steps.arrow_forward3. Explain in terms of bonding why ethene mostly undergoes electrophilic addition reactions. Draw the mechanism for the reaction of but-1-ene and hydrogen bromide. Show, via the mechanisms that are two different possible isomers – explain which one is formed preferentially and why this occurs.arrow_forwardMatch the following reactions with their reaction type.arrow_forward
- For each organic reaction, say whether at equilibrium there will be more reactants than products (so equilibrium lies ro the left), or more products than reactants (so equilibrium lies to the right)...arrow_forwardComplete the electron‑pushing mechanism for the given reaction with any missing atoms, bonds, charges, nonbonding electrons, and curved arrows, and select the type of final product formed.arrow_forwardThe addition of water to aldehydes and ketones occurs rapidly, although it is not thermodynamically favored. What would be the product for the reaction above? Hint: Think of the self-ionization of water and the polarity of the carbonyl group.arrow_forward
- Curved arrows are used to illustrate the flow of electrons. Using the provided starting and product structures, draw the curved electron-pushing arrows for the following reaction. Be sure to account for all bond-breaking and bond-making steps. all one questionarrow_forwardPlease write de product and mechanism, indicate the corresponding arrows for the mechanism and the name of the reactions.arrow_forwardWhy does Hammett Equation only apply to meta and para substituted rings and not others?
