Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The conversion of compound 1 to compound 4 occurs with the formation of carbocation as an intermediate. The curved arrows for the given conversion of compound 1 to compound 4 is to be interpreted.
Concept introduction:
(b)
Interpretation: The conversion of compound 1 to compound 4 occurs with the formation of carbocation as an intermediate. The reason for the rearrangement of tertiary carbocation (structure 2) to secondary carbocation (structure 3) is to be interpreted.
Concept introduction:
Alkenes are the unsaturated hydrocarbon that contains at least one double bond between the carbon atoms. The presence of pi bonds in these molecules makes them more reactive compared to saturated hydrocarbons; alkanes. The most common chemical reaction of alkenes is the addition reaction that mainly occurs with the formation of a carbocation.
