Concept explainers
Interpretation:
A reaction roadmap have to be made for the reactions in the study Guide problem 20.55 and chapter 21.
Concept Introduction:
Addition Reaction: It is defined as
Addition of alcohols to
Example: the reaction of methanol with ethanol to form hemiacetals or acetals.
Unsaturated compound: The nucleophile reacts with
The alkylation at the β carbon of ketone or aldehyde is done by the following mechanism;
(1) Alkylating the β carbon via enamine intermediate.
(2) Alkylating the β carbon via a Michael reaction.
Addition Reaction:
- It is a type of reaction in which two reactants adding together to form a single product.
- It can be said as a reverse reaction of elimination reaction.
- It is a characteristic reaction of
alkane .
Hydrogenation reaction is an addition reaction in which addition of hydrogen to an unsaturated molecule occurs

- 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_forward4. A CHEM 245 student wants to synthesize some ethylene glycol to use as antifreeze in his radiator this winter. He proposes the following reaction to his instructor, who quickly explains that this reaction won't work as proposed due to the student's choice of reagent. 1) NaH 2) H20 OH Но a) Why can't sodium hydride (NaH) be used as the nucleophile in the reaction above? b) Propose an alternate reagent that COULD be used with the ethylene oxide to successfully give the desired ethylene glycol product.arrow_forwardGive the reagents and intermediate products for the following two-step reaction.arrow_forward

- For each reaction in question 20, sketch a reaction coordinate energy diagram indicating the starting materials, transition states and any intermediates, if present, in the reaction. Don't worry about the absolute energy of starting materials and products but you can assume that the product is more stable than the starting materials.arrow_forwardMethamphetamine can exist in two possible forms, shown below: He is trying to convert structure A into structure B, but he forgot what Nora told him to do.
