Concept introduction: Carbocation formation is relatively slower than acid-base reactions. Carbocations generated from alkyl halides have two fates; they can be either trapped by nucleophiles to give substitution product or may deprotonated to yield small amount of alkene. Stronger the base more is the probability of elimination over substitution over elimination. Further, if still higher concentration is employed reaction proceeds via bimolecular elimination. On the other hand, weak base waits until the carbocation is formed and the type of elimination with relatively weak base is two-step elimination or

- Write the detailed mechanism of the formation of tetrachloromethane, CCI4, from the reaction of methane with Cl2 + hv. Include the initiation, propagation and termination steps.arrow_forwardDescribe the reaction mechanism for the hydrolysis of 2-bromo-2-methylpropane [CH3C(CH3)2Br] with aqueous hydroxide ions (OH-).The description should be detailed and must include the type of bond fission that takes place. You may sketch and insert suitable diagrams to aid your description if you wisharrow_forwardΚΗ Consider the following reaction which has the observed kinetic isotope effect = 1.5. kD Cy2 "PH Δ Cy2 -PI...pt + -P Cy2 Cy2 A) Draw a mechanism for this reaction and identify the type of reaction which is occurring.arrow_forward

(a) Write the complete mechanism, including initiation and propagation steps, for the free-radical polymerization of the following reactants: CEN hv ROOR + 2 ?? (b) Include one termination step (not from the initiation step or some species striking a wall).arrow_forwardDraw the organic product expected from the reaction. Include all hydrogen atoms.

For each polymerization: (i) Show the mechanism for the first two propagation steps, using benzoyl peroxide as the initiator. (ii) Draw the condensed formula for the polymer, showing the repeating unit. (iii) Provide a name for the polymer.

You will find useful information in the ALEKS Data resource. a × Y - CH3 Śarrow_forwardThe first step in the heterogeneoushydrogenation of ethylene is adsorption of theethylene molecule on a metal surface. One proposed explanation for the “sticking” of ethylene to a metalsurface is the interaction of the electrons in the C—C π bond with vacant orbitals on the metal surface. (a) If thisnotion is correct, would ethane be expected to adsorb to a metal surface, and, if so, how strongly would ethane bindcompared to ethylene? (b) Based on its Lewis structure,would you expect ammonia to adsorb to a metal surfaceusing a similar explanation as for ethylene?arrow_forwardIn unpolluted air at 300 K, the hydroxyl radical OH reacts with CO with a bimolecular rate constant of 1.6 × 101' L mol-1 s-1 and with CH4 with a rate constant of 3.8 × 10° L mol¬1 s-1. Take the partial pressure of CO in air to be constant at 1.0 × 10-7 atm and that of CH4 to be 1.7 x 10-6 atm, and assume that these are the primary mecha- nisms by which OH is consumed in the atmosphere. Cal- culate the half-life of OH under these conditions.arrow_forward
