Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The treatment of 1,4-dimethycyclohepta-1,3-diene with one equivalent of HBr at the elevated temperature given 1,2-adduct rather than 1,4-adduct should be explained.

Concept Introduction : The compound which has more substituted pi bond (thermodynamic product or major product) at high temperature is predominant.

the product obtained from the reaction of 1,3-butadiene with cis-1,2-dichloroethene O because it is a meso compound O because is has no asymmetric centers O because it is a racemic mixture O because it has a point of symmetry the product obtained from the reaction of 1,3-butadiene with trans-1,2-dichloroethene O because it is a meso compound Obecause is has no asymmetric centers Obecause it is a racemic mixture because it has a point of symmetry
Dehydrohalogenation 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.
Elimination occurs when (Z)-3-bromohex-3-ene is treated with NaNH2. Under the same conditions, 1-bromocyclohexeneundergoes elimination much more sluggishly. Explain why
