Chapter 7, Problem 10PP
Practice Problem 7.10
When cis-1-bromo-4-tert-butylcyclohexane is treated with sodium ethoxide in ethanol, it reacts rapidly; the product is 4-tert-butylcyclohexene. Under the same conditions, trans-1-bromo-4-tert-butylcyclohexane reacts very slowly. Write conformational structures and explain the difference in reactivity of these cis-trans isomers.

cis-1-Bromo-4-tert-butylcyclohexane and trans-1-bromo-4-tert-butylcyclohexane both react with sodium ethoxide in ethanol to form 4-tert-butylcyclohexene. Explain why the cis isomer reacts much more rapidly than the trans isomer.
Dehydrohalogenation of 1-chloro-1-methylcyclopropane affords two alkenes (A and B) as products. Explain why A is the major product despite the fact that it contains the less substituted double bond.
Using cyclohexane as your starting material, show how you would synthesize each of the following compounds. (Onceyou have shown how to synthesize a compound, you may use it as the starting material in any later parts of this problem.)(a) bromocyclohexane (b) cyclohexene (c) ethoxycyclohexane(d) 3-bromocyclohex-1-ene
