Chapter 7.SE, Problem 59AP
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 7.SE, Problem 59AP , additional homework tip  1

Interpretation:

Assuming Markovnikov’s rule is valid, the major alcohol product obtainable by the acid-catalyzed addition of water to 3-methyl-3-butene is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Markovnikov’s rule can be used to decide on the orientation in electrophilic addition reactions. According to this rule, in the addition of HX to an alkene, the H attaches itself with the carbon with fewer alkyl substituents and the X attaches itself with the carbon with more alkyl substituents.

To state:

The major alcohol product obtainable by the acid-catalyzed addition of water to 3-methyl-3-butene assuming that Markovnikov’s rule is valid.

Interpretation Introduction

b)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 7.SE, Problem 59AP , additional homework tip  2

Interpretation:

Assuming Markovnikov’s rule is valid, the major alcohol product obtainable by the acid-catalyzed addition of water to methylidenecyclohexene is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Markovnikov’s rule can be used to decide on the orientation in electrophilic addition reactions. According to this rule, in the addition of HX to an alkene, the H attaches itself with the carbon with fewer alkyl substituents and the X attaches itself with the carbon with more alkyl substituents.

To state:

The major alcohol product obtainable by the acid-catalyzed addition of water to methylidenecyclohexene assuming that Markovnikov’s rule is valid.

Interpretation Introduction

c)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 7.SE, Problem 59AP , additional homework tip  3

Interpretation:

Assuming Markovnikov’s rule is valid, the major alcohol product obtainable by the acid-catalyzed addition of water to 4- methyl-1-pentene is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Markovnikov’s rule can be used to decide on the orientation in electrophilic addition reactions. According to this rule, in the addition of HX to an alkene, the H attaches itself with the carbon with fewer alkyl substituents and the X attaches itself with the carbon with more alkyl substituents.

To state:

The major alcohol product obtainable by the acid-catalyzed addition of water to 4- methyl-1-pentene assuming that Markovnikov’s rule is valid.
