(b)
Interpretation: The order of stability is to be interpreted for the given alkenes:
Concept introduction:
Unsaturated hydrocarbons with at least one double bond between the carbon atoms are known as alkenes. The presence of pi bonds in these molecules makes them more reactive compared to saturated hydrocarbons; alkanes. The stability of alkenes depends on their substitution.

- When (R)-3-bromo-2,3-dimethylpentane is treated with NaOH, four different alkenes are formed. Draw all four products and rank them in order of stability.arrow_forwardDraw a structural formula for the most stable carbocation with each molecular formula. Q.) C3H7+arrow_forwardThere are three constitutional isomers with the molecular formula C5H12. Chlorination of one of these isomers yields only one product. Identify the isomer:arrow_forward

A) I B) II C) III D) Both I and IIarrow_forwardOChem HELP... Draw the conformational structures (chair or boat conformations) for the MAJOR product formed when 1-tert-butylcyclohexene reacts with each of the following reagents. Also, indicate if the product obtained is racemic form. a) Br2, CCl4 b) Br2, H2O c) OsO4, then aqueous NaHSO3 d) ICl e) mCPBA, then H3O+, H20 f) O3, then Me2S (conformational structure not required) g) BH3:THF, then H2O2, HO- h) D2, Pt i) Hg(OAc)2 in THF-H2O, then NaBH4, HO- j) BD3 :THF, then CH3CO2Tarrow_forward
- What organic product is formed when 1‑methylcyclopentene is treated with NMMO in the presence of H2O and a catalytic amound of OsO4? Clearly show stereochemistry by drawing a wedge and dashed bond for each chiral carbon. Only draw one stereoisomer if more than one can be formed.arrow_forward1. (1-bromo-1, 3-dimethylcyclopentane) an optically active pure sample reacted with water. Write the complete mechanism which includes the electron-pushing arrows. Show the expected stereochemistry for each of the case and each mechanism should give two distinct products and then describe the relationship of the products to one another.arrow_forwardArrange the trimethylcyclohexane isomers shown in order of decreasing stability.arrow_forward
