Chapter 24, Problem 24.36P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Mechanism for the 1st step of the reaction has to be given along with the reason for the direction.

Concept Introduction:

Acid-base reaction:

The species that release proton or accept lone pair of electrons are called acids and the species that accept proton or donate lone pair of electrons are called base.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism for the oxidation step has to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The palladium reagent used as electron transfer reagent to the phenolic oxygen.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism of the respective step has to be given along with the stereochemistry.

Concept introduction:

Diels Alder reaction:

The Diels-Alder reaction is a chemical reaction between a conjugated diene and a substituted alkene which is called dienophile to form a substituted cyclohexene derivative.  It is one type of pericyclic reaction with a concerted mechanism and more specifically it is thermally allowed [4+2] cycloaddition.  Dienes attached to some electron donating group are good HOMO and dienophile with electron withdrawing group are good LUMO.  The mechanism is as follows,

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the product is racemic or single enantiomer that has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Racemic mixture:

Racemic mixture is the mixture that has equal amounts of left and right handed enantiomers of the chiral molecule.

Acyl transfer (nucleophilic substitution at carbonyl) reactions proceed in two stages via a "tetrahedral intermediate." Draw the tetrahedral intermediate as it is first formed in the following reaction. H3C NH₂ HCI/H₂O reflux • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • Include all valence lone pairs in your answer. • Do not include counter-ions, e.g., Na+, I, in your answer. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.
Propose a plausible mechanism for the following transformation and justify the stereochemical outcome (J. Org. Chem. 1999, 64. 4617-4626): CO₂Me Heat MeOH MeO ° CO₂Me Step 1 Add any remaining curved arrow(s) to draw the first step of the mechanism. H₁₂C H.C ་་་་ H₂C O-CH3 Edit Drawing CH₂
(A) In the JK transformation, dilute HC1 (10%) was used to first deprotect/ unmask the acetal and ketal. Show the mechanism (use H3O+) for formation of the northern cyclohexene ring starting from the aldehyde and secondary amine. No need to show the mechanism of the acetal / ketal deprotection to the respective aldehyde and ketone. H -N-H CH3 CH3. CH31 CH3 K
