Ethers/Aldehydes/Ketones SynthesisPrepare the following compounds from any simple alkyl halide having four carbons or less,cyclohexane, and/or benzene. You may also use ethylene oxide (oxacyclopropane). SHOW ALLSTEPS AND REAGENTS with arrows.
A benzene ring alters the reactivity of a neighboring group in the so-called “benzylic” position, similarly to how a double bond alters the reactivity of groups in the “allylic” position. Benzylic cations, anions, and radicals are all more stable than simple alkyl intermediates. a) Use resonance structures to show the delocalization of the positive charge, negative charge, and unpaired electron of the benzyl cation, anion, and radical.
Convert 2-pentanol into 2,3-dibromopentane. Draw structures of the starting material (2-pentanol) and final product
(2,3-dibromopentane), and show the two reactions needed for this synthesis. Include the structure of the intermediate
compound, and the reagents and conditions for each reaction. Then explain why 1,2-dibromopentane would not be a
significant product of this synthesis.

- Alcohols are important for organic synthesis, especially in situations involving alkenes. The alcohol might be the desired product, or the OH group might be transformed into another functional group via halogenation, oxidation, or perhaps conversion to a sulfonic ester derivative. Formation of an alcohol from an alkene is particularly powerful because conditions can be chosen to produce either the Markovnikov or non-Markovnikov product from an unsymmetrical alkene. Using your reaction roadmap as a guide, show how to convert 4-methyl-1-pentene into 5-methylhexanenitrile. You must use 4-methyl-1-pentene and sodium cyanide as the source of all carbon atoms in the target molecule.

- Alkynes do not react directly with aqueous acid as do alkenes, but will do so in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate as a Lewis acid catalyst. The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism. Arrow-pushing Instructions -X티 Hö: H-O -CH3 -CH3 H30*arrow_forwardThe conversion of alcohols into alkyl halides by reaction with hydrogen halides is an example of a Nucleophilic Substitution Reaction. This kind of reaction can proceed by two different mechanisms depending on the structure of alcohol substrates used. Generally, primary alcohols are substituted via SN2 mechanism, while secondary and tertiary alcohols undergo SN1 mechanism. Consider the following reaction given in the picture below and the questions in the picture too.arrow_forwardSelect the reagent that you would use to convert an alkene to a Markovnikov (more substituted) alcohol without possibility of carbocation rearrangement. o H2SO4, H2O OBH3-THF, then H2O2, H2O, NaOH Hg(OAc)2, H2O, then NaBH4 o OsO4, TBHP, H2Oarrow_forward
