Concept Introduction:
In the acid-catalyzed ring-opening of an epoxide with water, first proton transfer takes place and then nucleophilic attack takes place via the SN2 mechanism. In the end, proton transfer step takes place that removes the charge formed after the attack of the neutral nucleophile on a more substituted position. Similarly, ring opening of epoxide can also take place in a basic medium. This results in an attack of the nucleophile on a less substituted position.

Treatment of a hydrocarbon A (molecular formula C9H18) with Br2 in the presence of light forms alkyl halides B and C, both having molecular formula C9H17Br. Reaction of either B or C with KOC(CH3)3 forms compound D (C9H16) as the major product. Ozonolysis of D forms cyclohexanone and acetone. Identify the structures of A–D.
3. An alcohol containing natural product A (C10H200) that is a common ingredient in cough drops
yields two structurally isomeric alkenes, 1 and 2, on dehydration. Ozonolysis followed by an
oxidative workup or a reductive workup as shown yields 3 and 4 from 1 and 2, respectively.
Hydroboration of alkene 1 yields the starting alcohol A as the major product from 1. Hydroboration
yields a mixture of the starting alcohol A and a diastereomer of A starting from alkene 2. Given this
information deduce the structure of A, 1, and 2. Show the correct absolute and relative
stereochemistry for A (the alcohol group is cis to a methyl group), 1, and 2 and correctly name these
three compounds.

- Amines are converted into alkenes by a two-step process called Hofmann elimination. SN2 reaction of the amine with an excess of CH3I in the first step yields an intermediate that undergoes E2 reaction when treated with silver oxide as base. Pentylamine, for example, yields 1-pentene. Propose a structure for the intermediate, and explain why it readily undergoes elimination.arrow_forwardWhen warmed in dilute sulfuric acid, 1-phenyl-1,2-propanediol undergoes dehydration and rearrangement to give 2-phenylpropanal. (a) Propose a mechanism for this example of a pinacol rearrangement (Section 10.7). (b) Account for the fact that 2-phenylpropanal is formed rather than its constitutional isomer, 1-phenyl-1-propanone.arrow_forwardAlcohols 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. Show all reagents needed and all molecules synthesized along the way.arrow_forward
- A newer generation of antipsychotics, among them clozapine, are now used to treat the symptoms of schizophrenia. These drugs are more effective than earlier drugs in improving patient response in the areas of social withdrawal, apathy, memory, comprehension, and judgment. They also produce fewer side effects such as seizures and tardive dyskinesia (involuntary body movements). In the following synthesis of clozapine, Step 1 is an Ullmann coupling, a type of nucleophilic aromatic substitution that uses a copper catalyst. (a) Show how you might bring about formation of the amide in Step 2. (b) Propose a reagent for Step 3. (c) Propose a mechanism for Step 4. (d) Is clozapine chiral? If so, how many of the possible stereoisomers are formed in this synthesis?arrow_forwardEnamines normally react with methyl iodide to give two products: one arising from alkylation at nitrogen and the second arising from alkylation at carbon. For example, Heating the mixture of C-alkylation and N-alkylation products gives only the product from C-alkylation.
