Chapter 5, Problem 52DSP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Using Hammond’s postulate for the potential energy diagram for the given reaction, the structures which resemble each other are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The potential energy diagram for a reaction represents the energy of the reactants, products, the transition states, and the reactive intermediates.

Using this diagram, the structures which resemble each other can be determined on the basis of their energy.

When the energy of two consecutive states is similar, these two states resemble in structure too. This is the Hammond’s postulate.

Illustrate the reaction mechanism for the ethylation of p-cyclopropyllphenol (other reactants: AlCl3 and ethylchloride). Refer to Friedel-Craft Alkylation mechanism as your guide in doing this mechanism. Show ALL partial charges in the EACH structure using BLUE color. Arrows should be written using RED color.
2. a. Write the complete reaction equation along with all the products that might be formed if 1-bromo-1-methylcyclohexane has an elimination reaction.b. Give the name of all the productsc. Which one is the major products? Give the explaination for your answer by writing the mechanism.
a. Write the complete mechanism, step by step, for the reaction shown in the image A, in such a way that it explains the formation of the products (Please do not forget the correct use of arrows!). b. Write the complete mechanism (suppose an E2), step by step of the reaction shown in the figure B, in such a way that it explains the formation of a single product (DO NOT FORGET THE CORRECT USE OF THE ARROWS!). Using structures, justify the formation of the chosen product and not others. c. Write the complete mechanism (suppose a bimolecular reaction), step by step of the reaction shown in the figure C, in such a way that it explains the formation of all possible products (there are three). (DON'T FORGET TO USE THE ARROWS CORRECTLY!). Watch out for stereochemistry!
