(a)
Interpretation:
The type of stereoisomers formed by the given reaction has to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Effect of delocalized electrons on the product of the reaction:
The presence of delocalizes electrons while electrophilic addition or substitution the cation intermediate formed is shifted to stable carbocation form at higher rate, and that leads to the product.
Rule: The stabilities of carbocation are,

- Discuss the stereochemistry of E2 reaction. include example of actual structures provide the name of your reactant,please show the arrow pushing.arrow_forwardHow would one do this using the Felkin-Anh model? also, is the meso or racemic mixture the major product?arrow_forwardWhat are the possible constitutional isomers and rank by SN2 reaction.arrow_forward
- What are regioselectivity and stereospecificity of E2 reactions? Can somebody please explain them to be with examples?arrow_forwardWhy does an SN2 reaction occur with inversion of configuration stereospecifically?arrow_forwarda. Write a second resonance structure for the following carbocation. b. Is the charge shared equally by both allylic carbons? If not, which one bears more of the charge? Select the single best answer. Both carbocations carry the same amount of charge. The structure on the left in Part 1 contributes more to the resonance hybrid. The structure on the right in Part 1 contributes more to the resonance hybrid.arrow_forward
