When the compound below is treated with catalytic sulfuric acid, an equilibrium mixture of many possible compounds results. Which of the following exists in the lowest concentration (essentially zero) among those products? (Hint: The first step can be either protonation of the alcohol or protonation of the alkene; Follow the possibilities from both paths). Note: Even if you immediately find the answer, it is worth your time to figure out how the other products ARE made by writing the mechanisms that lead to them. This is always good practice. ost (A) OH (B) [H₂SO4] ??? OH (D)

(a) A student was given a task to synthesize the products as shown below. Analyze the reaction schemes below and state whether the reaction conditions supplied in each reaction scheme will result in the products shown as MAJOR PRODUCTS. If wrong products are shown, draw the correct products and provide mechanistic details (curly arrows) of how the right (major) products were formed. of (i) NaN 3 EtOH
A chemist proposes that the reaction shown here proceeds by an SN2 mechanism. She carries out the reaction with oxygen-18 (180)-labeled hydroxide in 180-labeled water (i.e., 18OH/H2180). When analyzing the products, she finds that the 180 isotope appeared only in CH3CO, and not in CH3OH. What does this result suggest about her hypothesis? A CH3 H,C-ÖH H3C H,O H3C

Substitution and elimination: predict the product Maximum allowed tries per question: Unlimited (3) Draw the major organic product of the reaction. Follow this procedure: determine whether the reaction conditions are acidic or basic; identify the most nucleophilic/basic atom, the electrophilic atom, and the leaving group; predict whether elimination or substitution will occur; and then draw the product. Indicate the stereochemistry at every stereocenter with a single wedged (up), hashed (down), or wavy (a mixture of up and down; either) bond.
