Chapter 8, Problem 18E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The highest-energy species in the reactants and the highest-energy species in the products should be circled and explanation about reason behind no uphill curve even when generation of oxygen with a uni-negative charge occurs in below reaction should be given.

  Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry, Chapter 8, Problem 18E , additional homework tip  1

Concept introduction: Energetics of a reaction describes the energy associated with different components during the process of reaction. Energy diagram is a plot of energy along y-axis and reaction coordinate along x axis. Reaction proceeds when the reactant molecules collide and have proper orientation. The pathway from reactant to product involves transition state. A transition state is a hypothetical state that gives clear picture of the orientation of reactant molecules during collision that is a process of the bonds formed and broken during the reaction. Transition state is the highest energy state of a reaction.

The intermediate involved usually have higher potential energy than reactants species as they are formed transiently and fall back to form products that are more stable and hence reduced in potential energy.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Energy diagram that best describes the below reaction should be identified.

2. Since both molecules have possible nucleophilic and electrophilic sites, use trial and error to see what happens. Follow the instructions below, and analyze whether the product is reasonable or not. i) Note: In order to not overfill an octet, pi electrons need to become a lone pair. We've practiced this with resonance, now you're going to practice it with chemical reactions. Nuc O NH₂ Elec directly attach to S. Do not overfill octets This product is unreasonable because:
Draw both resonance structures of the most stable carbocation intermediate in the reaction shown. ● ● ● + HBr You do not have to consider stereochemistry. Do not include anionic counter-ions, e.g., I", in your answer. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate resonance structures using the symbol from the drop-down menu.
