Question
Molecule: 6-chloro-4-ethylhex-2-enoic acid
For the mechanism you will focus on the reaction of the portion of the molecule drawn only (not the R part). For any corrections, disregard the parts of your molecule represented by R-groups. Below the incorrect mechanism write a discussion (step-by-step) of the incorrect mechanism identifying all of the mistakes in the mechanism. Keep in mind that there will be more than one mistake in the given mechanism and that the product given is not necessarily the correct product of the reaction of your molecule with the given reagent. For each mistake, give a detailed, scientific explanation of why it is incorrect. Draw your own correct mechanism on a new page
Transcribed Image Text:Incorrect Mechanism (The mechanism is for the formation of the major product. Please ignore the
minor product).
