Interpretation:
The name and stability (most stable to least stable) of given
Concept Introduction:
Delocalized electrons: Electrons that are not localized in one particular atom or bond and shared by three or more atoms are called delocalized electrons.
Compounds with two double bonds are known as dienes.
Stability of diene: The number of alkyl group increases with increasing the stability of the dienes.
Conjugated diene: Dienes are hydrocarbons with two double bonds; where the conjugated double bonds are separated by one single bond.
Resonance contributor: In some chemical compounds like benzene pi electrons are delocalized in it and difficult to locate it. Resonance contributor gives an idea of whereabouts of pi electrons. The exact structure with localized electrons are called resonance contributor.

- Draw structural formulas for the diene and dienophile that combine in a Diels-Alder reaction to form the product shown. Diene + Dienophile ? CH3 Consider E/Z stereochemistry of alkenes. • Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner.

CH3 CH3CH=CHCH3 and CH;ċ=CHCH3 Draw the structural formula of the MAJOR product formed by the alkene having the HIGHER reaction rate. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.

- Diels–Alder reaction of a monosubstituted diene (such as CH2=CH–CH=CHOCH3) with a monosubstituted dienophile (such as CH2=CHCHO)gives a mixture of products, but the 1,2-disubstituted product oftenpredominates. Draw the resonance hybrid for each reactant, and use thecharge distribution of the hybrids to explain why the 1,2-disubstitutedproduct is the major product.arrow_forward6) Rank the stability of the following carbocations (1 = most stable) Toarrow_forward8. +) Draw the structure of (2S,3S)-2-chloro-3-methylhexane.

- 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.arrow_forward1. In the lecture on the reactions of alkenes, we studied the reaction of alkenes with N- Bromosuccinimide (NBS), which went through a mechanism involving an allylic radical (the radical is a carbon attached to a carbon involved in a л bond). What if there were a conjugated system? Draw, using curved arrows, the three resonance forms of cyclohexadienyl radical:arrow_forward2. (a) In the absence of peroxides, isopropyl alcohol and styrene do not react. But when peroxides are present, an addition reaction occurs as shown below. Homolytic BDE values for certain bonds in the reactants and products are shown in kcal/mol.

After drawing the mechanism, calculate AH and Ea for each propagation step individually, and then for the reaction overall. Predict two very minor by-products formed by chain termination. (b) The relative concentration of the two reactants drastically affects the success of this reaction. Which reactant would be preferred in excess, and why? What happens if the wrong reactant is in excess?arrow_forward
