Concept introduction:
The replacement or substitution of one functional group with another different functional group in any chemical reaction is termed as substitution reaction. In nucleophilic substitution reaction, nucleophile takes the position of leaving group by attacking on the electron deficient carbon atom.

Concept introduction:
The replacement or substitution of one functional group with another different functional group in any chemical reaction is termed as substitution reaction. In nucleophilic substitution reaction, nucleophile takes the position of leaving group by attacking on the electron deficient carbon atom.
(d)
Interpretation:
The products of the reaction between bromocyclohexane and methanol are to be predicted and the curved-arrow mechanism of the reaction is to be stated.

- When 2-methyl-2, 5-pentanediol is treated with sulfuric acid, dehydration occurs and 2, 2-dimethyltetrahydrofuran is formed. Suggest a mechanism for this reaction. Which of the two oxygen atoms is most likely to be eliminated, and why?arrow_forwardThe following sequence of steps converts (R)-2-octanol to (S)-2-octanol. Propose structural formulas for intermediates A and B, specify the configuration of each, and account for the inversion of configuration in this sequence.arrow_forwardNonconjugated , -unsaturated ketones, such as 3-cyclohexenone, are in an acid-catalyzed equilibrium with their conjugated , -unsaturated isomers. Propose a mechanism for this isomerization.arrow_forward
- Acid-catalyzed dehydration of neopentyl alcohol, (CH3)3CCH2OH, yields 2-methyl-2- butene as the major product. Outline a mechanism showing all steps in its formation.arrow_forwardSuggest a suitable mechanism for this multi-step reaction, and give products A and Barrow_forwardWhen 1,2-cyclohexanediol is dehydrated in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid, the major product is not an alkene. Instead, you get cyclohexanone. Write a reasonable and detailed mechanism for the dehydration of 1,2-cyclohexanediol to form cyclohexanone. Use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons and draw the structures of all intermediates and byproducts formed in the course of this reaction as well as any alternative resonance structures that will help you to account for the formation of the major product observed in this reaction.arrow_forward
- Complete the following mechanism for the acid-catalyzed rearrangement of 1-vinyl-2-phenylcyclopropane to give both isomers (E / Z) of 5-bromo-5-phenyl-2-pentene employing the curved-arrow/arrow-pushing formalism.arrow_forwardGive all the monobromination products of 2-methylpropane (or isobutane) in presence of heat or energy. Identify the major product and propose a mechanism leading to the formation of the major product. Provide a reaction in the termination step.arrow_forwardTreatment of 2-bromo-2-methylbutane with KOH in ethanol yields a mixture of two Alkenes products. What are their likely structures? Show its mechanism.arrow_forward
- Explain and detail the reaction mechanism: NaBr + H2O + n-butyl alcohol = ?arrow_forwardCompound A has molecular formula C4H10, and gives two monochlorides, B and C, on photochemical chlorination. Treatment of either of these monochlorides with potassium tert-butoxide gives the same alkene (C4H8) as the product, but B leads to just one isomer of the alkene, D, where C gives D and another isomer of the alkene, E. Treatment of monochlorides B and C with aqueous ethanol gives products F and G, respectively, both of which are of molecular formula C4H10O. What are the names of compounds A-G?arrow_forwardThe reaction of 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol with HBr is very slow and forms 2-bromo-2-methylbutane as the main product Come up with a mechanism to explain these observationsarrow_forward
