Each of the following reactions has been reported in the chemical literature and proceeds in good yield. What are the principal organic products of each reaction? In some of the exercises more than one diastereomer may be possible, but one of them is either the major product or the only product. For those reactions in which one diastereomer is formed preferentially, indicate its expected stereochemistry.
Provide a reasonable stepwise mechanism for the following transformation. Show the structure of any intermediates and use the arrow formalism to account for electron flow. Draw the structure of the regioisomer that might form and suggest a reason why it would not be produced.
In the Friedel-Crafts alkylation of benzene, dialkylation is often a significant by-product. In the Friedel-Crafts acylation of benzene, diacylation is not a significant by-product. Which of the following is the primary reason for this difference?
a. Acyl cations are more difficult to make with Lewis acids
b.Unlike acyl cations, carbocations can undergo rearrangements.
c.Alkyl groups activate the ring to further substitution, acyl groups deactivate it.
d. Alkyl groups activate the ring to further substitution, acyl groups deactivate it
