Concept explainers
Interpretation:
It is to be explained why the attempt to synthesize an epoxide according to the given reaction scheme failed.
Concept introduction:
In the most stable form of substituted cyclohexane, the bulkiest group occupies the equatorial position. The substituents attached to the cyclohexane are cis if they lie on the same side of the plane of the ring, and they are trans if they lie on the opposite side of the plane of the ring.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY PRINCIPLES & MECHANISM
- Synthesis: make the following compounds from given materials (on the left) and any other reagents that you need.arrow_forwardDraw each hybridisation steps (with detailed explanation) of this reaction pleasearrow_forwarda) Propose a mechanism for the following electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction used to make the synthetic dye shown below. This reaction is also called a “diazo coupling”. b) Explain why the para pathway would be favored over the meta pathway. Be sure to draw all resonance structures for the para pathway and include a sentence or two for a full explanation. Why would the para pathway be favored over the ortho pathway?arrow_forward
- Provide a mechanism for the intramolecular nucleophilic addition and elimination reaction shown here by providing the missing structures (including the final product) and curved arrows. The reaction resembles a Dieckmann condensation, except instead of two esters, the molecule contains an ester and a ketone. The ketone is more acidic and will be the nucleophile. Your structures should include all nonzero formal charges and lone pairs of electrons. When drawing the enolate place the negative charge on the carbon not the oxygen.arrow_forwardDraw the product and mechanism for the reaction below. Include all major resonance structures.arrow_forwardplease help with this question. thank you. Propose a mechanism for this transformationarrow_forward
- Can someone please explain to me the reaction mechanism of this reaction? Please answer fully and clearly with enough explanation, thank you!arrow_forwardExplain why the following reaction takes place as shown. Be sure to fully explain why the reaction sites are used and what is happening to the formal charges. Include a possible explanation for the negatively charged oxygen reacting with the carbon bonded to the Cl rather than the carbon bonded to the SH.arrow_forwardThe following reaction results in the formation of not one, not two, but seven (!) different compounds. In short, it is a tragic mess, but a good one for us to study. Propose a mechanism for the formation of each product. HINT: think about different possible resonance forms of the reactive intermediate, and recall that stereoisomers are different compoundsarrow_forward
- Complete the reaction that is shown in the picture below.arrow_forwardC6H8O7 + 3NaHCO3 -> Na3C6H5O7 + 3H2O + 3CO2 what type of this reaction? Please answer with explanation. Please answer correct will give you upvote.arrow_forwardfor this mechanism, show all steps including resonance structures and intermediates. thank you!arrow_forward
