- For each one, what are the products? For each subpart, point that the mechanism (SN1, SN2,E1 or E2). Draw major product structurearrow_forwardDraw a detailed arrow pushing mechanism for the following reaction. In the rate-determining step unimolecular (SN1) or bimolecular (SN2)arrow_forwardProvide an arrow pushing mechanism for the following transformation. Draw out a representation of the transition-state in the rate-determining step.arrow_forward
- A pair of diastereomers is each individually mixed with a strong base, and for both, an E2 reaction occurs.Provide the missing curved arrow notation, and draw the correct geometric isomer that is formed for both of the E2 mechanisms. There should be TWO diastereomer drawings. (See image...1st box with curved arrows are correct)arrow_forwardFor the following transformation can you identify if it involves reduction, oxidation or neither? Can you explain how you know?arrow_forwardDraw all the steps of this mechanism with arrows.arrow_forward
- For which reaction mechanisms—SN1, SN2, E1, or E2—of thefollowing statement true? A statement may be true for one or moremechanisms. The reaction rate increases with better leaving groups.arrow_forwardEach of the following reaction produces ONE MAJOR PRODUCT. In each case, draw this product. For multi-step reactions, just give the FINAL product, no intermediate or mechanism.arrow_forwardDraw the complete, detailed E1 mechanism for each of the following reactions, and show all resonance structures, where applicable.arrow_forward
- draw out mechanism (either E1 or E2) for this combined with CH3OH (arrows, intermediates, etc should be shown). Circle the less prevalent and more prevalent productsarrow_forwardDraw the complete mechanism of each pair of reactants including any favorable rearrangements and all important resonance structures of all intermediates. a. Which reaction has a lower PE carbocation intermediate? b. Draw an energy diagram showing the reaction profiles of both reactions in the previous question. Use a dotted line for the first pair of reactants and a solid line for the second pair of reactants. (Assume the energy of the starting materials and products are the same for both pairs and the reactions are neither uphill nor downhill on net. c. Mark points on the energy diagram corresponding to each carbocation in your mechanisms.arrow_forwardFor which reaction mechanisms—SN1, SN2, E1, or E2—of thefollowing statement true? A statement may be true for one or moremechanisms. Racemization at a stereogenic center occurs.arrow_forward
