Q4.
Diels-Alder Chemistry (25 pts).
Shown below are 2 possible Diels-Alder
approaches to make compound
1
. Method B is much better than method A.
a) Draw a mechanism for formation of
1
from diene

and dienophile
5. (3 pts)
b) One reason Method B is superior to Method A is because diene
4
is
conformationally restricted, whereas diene
2
is conformationally mobile. Draw
the two conformations for diene

. Then circle the conformation that is favored at
equilibrium (6 pts)

A traditional Japanese Haiku is a three-line poem with seventeen
syllables, written in a 5/7/5 syllable count. Often focusing on images from
Nature, Haiku emphasizes simplicity, intensity, and directness of expression.”

Dalton believed that atoms were solid, indivisible spheres, an idea we now reje
But he showed remarkable insight into the nature of matter and its interactions. Sone
of his ideas could not be verified (or refuted) experimentally at the timne. They were based
on the limited experimental observations of his day. Even with their shortcomings
Dalton's ideas provided a framework that could be modified and expanded by late
scientists. Thus, John Dalton is often considered to be the father of modern atomie
theary.
In Dalton's work, he thought that atoms are indestruetible. However, it was later
found that atoms still contain smaller particles and that these subatomic particles
further contain particles within them. Since then, sorne revisions have been made on
Dalton's work although much of il renained intact.

Acids and Bases
Identifying the major species in weak acid or weak base equilibria
0/3
The preparations of two aqueous solutions are described in the table below. For each solution, write the chemical formulas of the major species present at
equilibrium. You can leave out water itself.
Write the chemical formulas of the species that will act as acids in the 'acids' row, the formulas of the species that will act as bases in the 'bases' row, and the
formulas of the species that will act as neither acids nor bases in the 'other' row.
You will find it useful to keep in mind that NH3 is a weak base.
