Chapter 9, Problem 9.39P

Following are diastereomers (A) and (B) of 3-bromo-3,4-dimethylhexane. On treatment with sodium ethoxide in ethanol, each gives 3,4-dimethyl-3-hexene as the major product. One diastereomer gives the E alkene, and the other gives the Z alkene. Which diastereomer gives which alkene? Account for the stereoselectivity of each β-elimination.

The optically active (2R)-2-phenyl-2-butanol reacts in hydrochloric acid to form haloalkanes and alkenes. The substitution reaction is reported to occur with 100% racemization. Give the structures of the enantiomers that form during the substitution and indicate how much of each is formed. Propose a mechanism for the substitution reaction to yield the R product. What reagents would you use to achieve 100% retention of configuration. Two geometric isomers are obtained during the elimination reaction. Explain mechanistically which alkene will be the main product.
5. Compound A, C 10H 18O, undergoes reaction with dilute H 2SO 4 at 50 °C to yield a mixture of two alkenes, C 10H 16.  The major alkene B, gives only cyclopentanone after ozone treatment followed by reduction with zinc in acetic acid.  Which of the following reactions are correct.
A certain compound of molecular formula C19H38 was isolated from fish oil and from plankton. On hydrogenation it gave 2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane. Ozonolysis gave (CH3)2C O and a 16-carbon aldehyde. What is the structure of the natural product? What is the structure of the aldehyde?
