- Draw the structures of two alkenes that would react to form the haloalkane below upon addition of HBr. Your alkenes should be different regioisomers that yield the haloalkane as the major product without requiring rearrangement to occur.arrow_forwardWhat product would occur after an addition reaction of H2O to the following acid? How would the properties of the new product be different from the original acid?arrow_forwardOf the four possible cis,trans isomers, one is formed in over 85% yield. Q.) Which is the structure of the isomer formed in 85% yield? How do you account for its formation? Create a model to help you make this prediction.arrow_forward
- What could be the product of this alkene as it reacts with reagent KMnO4?arrow_forwardWhat is the product of the reaction and show a possible mechanism for the formation of the product?arrow_forwardA haloalkane reacts with a strong base to yield only one alkene product. Select the possible structures that can give this result from Figure 9. * A B C Darrow_forward
- Would both alkenes form the same alkyl halide if DBr were used instead of HBr? (D is an isotope of H, so D+ reacts like H+.)arrow_forwardShow the products generated from the HBr reaction with each of the following alkenes, not forgetting to indicate which is the majority product.arrow_forwardPredict the products of the following reactions. ) furan + trans@1,2@dicyanoethylenearrow_forward
