Chapter 5, Problem 40P
  1. a. The ΔG° for conversion of “axial” fluorocyclohexane to “equatorial” fluorocyclohexane at 25 °C is −0.25 kcal/mol. Calculate the percentage of fluorocyclohexane molecules that have the fluoro substituent in an equatorial position at equilibrium.
  2. b. Do the same calculation for isopropylcyclohexane (its ΔG ° value at 25 °C is −2.1 kcal/mol).
  3. c. Why is the percentage of molecules with the substituent in an equatorial position greater for isopropylcyclohexane?

Carvone is the major constituent of spearmint oil. Draw the major organic product of the reaction of carvone with HOCH2CH2OH, HCI. Carvone • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • Do not include lone pairs in your answer. They will not be considered in the grading. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. • If no reaction occurs, draw the organic starting material. + Sn 1
