Draw the structures of the following compound:
8-benzyl-6-(3-chloro-2-methylbutyl)-N-ethyl-9-fluoro-N,2,2-trimethyl-7-propoxy-5-decanamine
When trans-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, cyclohexene oxide is the product. However, when cis-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, the product is cyclohexanone.
Why doesn’t the cis isomer yield the oxide?
Explain why methyl trifluoroacetate, CF3CO2CH3, is more reactive than methyl acetate, CH3CO2CH3, in nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions.
