- 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 first step of this reaction sequence. Be sure to account for all bond-breaking and bond- making steps. I H BH₂ H B H Select to Add Arrows > H Bll H BH₂arrow_forward1) The carbon-oxygen double bond present in aldehydes and ketones is very polar. What does this mean and how does it arise? 2) The carbon-oxygen double bond is readily attacked by nucleophiles like cyanide ions or ammonia. (i) What do you understand by the term nucleophile? (ii) Which part of the carbon-oxygen double bond is attractive to nucleophiles? 3) Why is there a difference between aldehydes and ketones in their response to oxidizing agents such as potassium dichromate(VI) solution acidified with dilute sulfuric acid?arrow_forward4. Complete the following reactions. Only include the major products.arrow_forward
- Bn Draw the structure of the major organic product formed from the reaction below. Bn H ད ་ + HỌỌC. NH2 N DCC .... NH H Bnarrow_forwardFill in missing reactants/reagents/products for each case accordingly in correct order.arrow_forwardThe reaction below is known as the haloform reaction. Why do only methyl ketones form a haloform? Explain using both chemical structures and words.arrow_forward
- 1. The line structure of a natural product that was isolated from various shrubs is shown below. This natural substance is very unusual in that it is rather unstable and decomposes when heated above 130 °C. Suggest an explanation for this property. 2. The structure of a vitamin is shown below. H HH H H C C-H `N' H. H H H H H Identify two potentially nucleophilic atoms and two potentially electrophilic atoms in your structure, giving a very brief explanation in each case.arrow_forwardPredict the products of the following biochemical reaction: CH₂ CH CH₂ O- O || O || -(CH₂)6 - CH3 -(CH₂)6 - CH3 -(CH₂)6 - CH3 + 3 NaOH A In particular, draw the structure of the product or products P in the drawing area below. If there are no products, because this reaction won't happen, check the No reaction box under the drawing area. Note: if there is more than one product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Also, just draw the structure of each product. You don't have to draw the complete right-hand side of the equation, including stoichiometric coefficients. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. X :0 Śarrow_forward5. Synthesis: Synthesize the following compound from cyclohexane, any carbon pieces that are three carbons or less (can include other functional groups), and any inorganic reagents.arrow_forward
- Functional groups such as alkynes react the same in complex molecules as they do in simpler structures. The following example of alkyne reaction were taken from syntheses carried out in the research group of E. J. Corey at Harvard University. You can assume that the reactions listed involve only the alkyne, not any of the functional groups present in the molecules. Draw the expected products for the following reaction .arrow_forward3) Use the reaction shown below and the associated reaction energy diagram to answer the following questions. E A Но- + Br HO. Br- reaction coordinate a) In the space above, use curved arrows to show the mechanism of the reaction. b) Classify the reaction as either addition, elimination or substitution. c) In this reaction is hydroxide (HO-) acting as a nucleophile or as a base? c) Based on the reaction energy diagram, is the reaction endergonic or exergonic? d) Based on the reaction energy diagram, and assuming the reaction is reversible, would the equilibrium lie to the left or to the right? e) Which position on the reaction energy diagram (A, B or C) corresponds to the transition state?arrow_forwardFill the blank space. Compounds containing a phenol group may work as ANTIOXIDANTS to prevent free radical damage. This is accomplished when a free radical (or UV light) encounters a phenol group, turning the phenol group into a radical. However, contrary to typical radical behavior, the structure of the phenol radical can neutralize (or quench) the unpaired electron. Specifically, the phenol structure neutralizes (or quenches) the unpaired radical electron by doing the following: taking the electron and ---------. The correct name (or abbreviation) of an example compound containing a phenol group with antioxidant properties is: ---------.arrow_forward
