- Define the Mechanism of the Radical Addition of HBr to an Alkene ?arrow_forwardGive reasons: (i) C—Cl bond length in chlorobenzene is shorter than C—Cl bond length in CH3—Cl.(ii) The dipole moment of chlorobenzene is lower than that of cyclohexyl chloride.(iii) SN1 reactions are accompanied by racemization in optically active alkyl halidesarrow_forwardThe first step in a synthesis of dodecahedrane involves a Diels-Alder reaction between the cyclopentadiene derivative (1) and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (2). Show how these two molecules react to form the dodecahedrane synthetic intermediate (3). + CH,0OCC=CCOOCH, COOCH ČOOCH3 Cyclopentadienyl- cyclopentadiene (1) Dimethyl acetylene- dicarboxylate (2) (3)arrow_forward
- (3) HI does not undergo free radical addition with 1-butene, even in the presence of a peroxide. Please provide an explanation by analyzing the propagation steps if the same radical reaction occurred with HI. Besides the bond dissociation enthalpies in the appendix, the following approximate bond dissociate enthalpies might be useful to you: ~310 kJ/mol The component of C=C CH3CH₂CH₂CH₂-Br CH3CH₂CH₂CH2-I -290 kJ/mol (C-Br bond) ~235 kJ/mol (C-I bond)arrow_forwardThe diene lactone shown in part (a) has one electron-donating group (¬OR) and one electron-withdrawing group(C“O). This diene lactone is sufficiently electron-rich to serve as the diene in a Diels–Alder reaction.(a) What product would you expect to form when this diene reacts with methyl acetylenecarboxylate, a strong dienophile?arrow_forward4. Give the structure of a conjugated diene with the molecular formula of C7H12.arrow_forward
- C(CH3)2OH C(CH3):X +H20 where (X=F, CI, Br, I) give reaction with each of halogen as well determine with which halogen substitution reaction is more favorable and feasible and give reason of its feasibility?arrow_forwardThe Diels–Alder reaction between butadiene and dimethyl maleate yields a ring structure, as shown in the product. Complete the structure by drawing any missing bonds and indicating the stereochemistry of the new stereocenters.arrow_forward(a) Write the products of following reactions. Give mechanism with proper stereochemistry? (2 x 2.5 = 5) (ii) Me Δ Δ CNarrow_forward
- Provide the structure of (Z)-1-chloro-1-fluoro-1-butene.arrow_forwardTwo substitution products result from the reaction between 3-chloro-3-methyl-1- butene with sodium acetate (CH3COO – Na +) in acetic acid under SN1. Identify the products.arrow_forward(a) Cyclohexa-1,3-diene can be converted into a tetrasubstituted haloalkane when reacted with bromine in ether. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs and state the expected observation. (b) Compound A and B are alkenes with the same molecular formula C5H10. Compound A is a branched-chain alkene while compound B is a straight-chain alkene. The reaction between compound A with hydrogen bromide produces major product C which is optically active. (i) Draw TWO (2) possible structures for compound B. (ii) Outline the mechanism for the reaction between compound A with hydrogen bromide to form major product C. (iii) Name the product formed when compound A undergoes bromination reaction.arrow_forward
