Justify the fact that the compound below could not be synthesized from the mechanism below under thermal conditions, through the theory of molecular orbital and orbital symmetry. PLEASE DO NOT ONLY USE ARROWS TO DEMONSTRATE THE MECHANISM, USE MOLECULAR ORBITES AND ORBIT SYMMETRY.
For each of the following reactions, check in the box which of these A or B components represents "highest occupied molecular orbital" (HOMO) and "lowest unoccupied molecular orbital" (LUMO). Once assigned, determine their type of orbitals.
Predict the product(s) OR starting material of the following reactions. Remember hydride shifts are possible if/when a more stable carbocation can exist (depending on reaction mechanism)! Put only the organic molecules in the boxes.
