- Alcohols are important for organic synthesis, especially in situations involving alkenes. The alcohol might be the desired product, or the OH group might be transformed into another functional group via halogenation, oxidation, or perhaps conversion to a sulfonic ester derivative. Formation of an alcohol from an alkene is particularly powerful because conditions can be chosen to produce either the Markovnikov or non-Markovnikov product from an unsymmetrical alkene. Using your reaction roadmap as a guide, show how to convert 4-methyl-1-pentene into 5-methylhexanenitrile. You must use 4-methyl-1-pentene and sodium cyanide as the source of all carbon atoms in the target molecule. Show all reagents needed and all molecules synthesized along the way.arrow_forwardThe cis and trans 2-butene stereoisomers have the following rate constant values associated with the electrophilic addition of water in an acid medium at the same temperature. what is the difference between the two values through the energy profile of each reaction. CH3 H,O productos H+ H3C k = 3.51 x 10- M's1 H3C CH3 H,0 > productos H+ k = 8.32 x 10®M's1arrow_forwardHydrohalic acids (i.e., HCl, HBr, HI) add to the double bond of alkenes to yield alkyl halides. Shown below is the carbon NMR spectrum of an alkene of formula C5H10. What is the structure of this alkene?arrow_forward
- In SN2 reactions of haloalkanes, the order of reactivity is RI>RBr>RCl>RF. Alkyl iodides are considerably more reactive than alkyl fluorides, often by factors as great as 106. All 1-halo-2,4-dinitrobenzenes, however, react at approximately the same rate in nucleophilic aromatic substitutions. Account for this difference in relative reactivities.arrow_forwardEach of the following reactions has been described in the chemical literature and involves an organic reactant somewhat more complex than those we have encountered so far. Nevertheless, on the basis of the topics covered in this chapter, you should be able to write the structure of the principal organic product of each reaction.arrow_forwardDo not answer in image format.

- The reaction of 1-iodopropane with potassium thiocyanate (KSCN) in certain solvents results in the formation of two isomeric products, propylthiocyanate and propylisothiocyanate (see scheme below), via the SN2 reaction mechanism. Attempts to prepare a similar mixture of these same isomeric products (propylthiocyanate and propylisothiocyanate) starting from 1-propene is illustrated below. Despite the strong acidity of thiocyanic acid (recall pKa = 1.1), this addition reaction does not lead to either of the products indicated. Based on your knowledge of alkene addition reactions, explain this experimental result.arrow_forwardPeroxides are often added to free-radical reactions as initiators because the oxygen–oxygen bond cleaves homolytically rather easily. For example, the bond-dissociation enthalpy of the O¬O bond in hydrogen peroxide (H¬O¬O¬H) is only 213 kJ>mol (51 kcal>mol). Give a mechanism for the hydrogen peroxide-initiated reaction of cyclopentane with chlorine. The BDE for HO¬Cl is 210 kJ>mol (50 kcal>mol).arrow_forwardThe compound below is treated with chlorine in the presence of light. CH3 CH3CHCH,CH3 Draw the structure for the organic radical species produced by reaction of the compound with a chlorine atom. Assume reaction occurs at the weakest C-H bond. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms.arrow_forward
- Bromine reacts with alkenes in methanol according to the equation when this reaction was carried out with 4-tert-butylcyclohexene, only one isomer was formed with the molecular formula C12H23BrO (80% yield). Which of the following is the structure more reasonable for this compound? Explain your reasoning through a corresponding mechanism.arrow_forwardDraw a structural formula for the major organic product of the following reaction:arrow_forwardHydroboration of the following bicycloalkene followed by oxidation in alkaline hydroperoxide is both stereoselective and regioselective. The product is a single alcohol in better than 95% yield.Propose a structural formula for this alcohol and account for the stereo- and regio- selectivity of its formation. Hint: Examine a molecular model of this alkene and see if you can determine which face of the double bond is more accessible to hydroboration.arrow_forward
