- Explain why pentane-2,4-dione forms two different alkylation products (Aor B) when the number of equivalents of base is increased from one totwo.arrow_forwardexplain why homolysis of the O-H bond in phenol requires considerably less energy than homolysis of the O-H bond in ethanolarrow_forwardWhat is the skeletal structure of the alkyl halide that forms the following alkene as its only product in an elimination reaction?arrow_forward
- Organic Chemistry Acid catalyzed dehydration reaction of 2-methyl-1-butanol produces 2-methyl-2-butene as the major product. Also acid catalyzed dehydration reaction of 3-methyl-1-butanol give the same product as major product. Explain the reason why both of the reaction produce the same product as the major product.arrow_forwardDraw the structure of the major organic product(s) for the following reaction between an acetylenic anion and an alkyl halide. (The reaction stoichiometry is 1:1.)arrow_forwardDehydrohalogenation of 1-chloro-1-methylcyclopropane affords two alkenes (A and B) as products. Explain why A is the major product despite the fact that it contains the less substituted double bond.arrow_forward
- Draw the structure of each alkene of molecular formula C7H14 that has a tetrasubstituted double bondarrow_forwardAcid catalyzed dehydration reaction of 2-methyl-1-butanol produces 2-methyl-2-butene as the major product. Also acid catalyzed dehydration reaction of 3-methyl-1-butanol give the same product as major product. Explain the reason why both of the reaction produce the same product as the major product.arrow_forwardExplain the role strain plays on stability and reactivity of a cyclic alkane such as cyclopropane.arrow_forward
- Draw the tautomer of this enol. Include all lone pairs. Ignore inorganic byproducts. :OH: :0: H3O+ Draw Tautomerarrow_forwardA 2-bromobutane react with methanol and form a enantiomeric pair of 2-methoxybutane. Draw the structures of the enntiomeric pairs of ethers.arrow_forwardIsotretinoin is a retinoid derivative of vitamin A used in the treatment of severe recalcitrant acne. What is the degree of substitution of the encircled alkene functional group in its structure? HO, A trisubstituted monosubstituted tetrasubstituted D disubstitutedarrow_forward
