Predict the products of the following reactions. Show stereochemistry and regiochemistry of the product, where relevant. The image illustrates a series of chemical reactions starting with toluene, represented by its molecular structure:1. The first reaction involves two steps: - Reaction with mercuric acetate \((\text{Hg(OAc)}_2)\) in water \((\text{H}_2\text{O})\). - Followed by reduction with sodium borohydride \((\text{NaBH}_4)\).2. The second reaction involves the addition of methylene iodide \((\text{CH}_2\text{I}_2)\) and zinc with copper \((\text{Zn(Cu)})\).3. The third transformation uses hydrogen gas \((\text{H}_2)\) in the presence of a platinum catalyst \((\text{Pt})\).4. The fourth reaction employs potassium permanganate \((\text{KMnO}_4)\) with an acidic medium \( (\text{H}^+)\).5. The fifth reaction involves the addition of water \((\text{H}_2\text{O})\) and sulfuric acid \((\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4)\).6. In the sixth reaction, bromine \((\text{Br}_2)\) is applied in an aqueous solution \((\text{H}_2\text{O})\).7. The final reaction involves the addition of hydrochloric acid \((\text{HCl})\).These reactions typically involve transformations such as oxidation, reduction, halogenation, and other functional group changes onto the aromatic ring of toluene.

[Review Topics) [References) OH 1. Hg(OAc)2, H20 2. NaBH, CH3 CH3 H2C H3C Acid-catalyzed addition of water to an alkene yields an alcohol with MarkoVnikov regiochemistry. The electrophilic H" adds to the sp carbon with the most hydrogens to yield the most stable carbocation intermediate, which then adds water to give the product alcohol. Because a carbocation intermediate is formed, rearrangements can occur prior to the addition of water. To avoid the possibility of rearrangement and still give a Markovnikov alcohol, alkenes can instead be treated with mercury(II) acetate in aqueous THF and then subsequently reduced with sodium borohydride. This reaction proceeds through a cyclic mercurinium i1on intermediate which cannot rearrange. Water adds to the cyclic intermediate at the most substituted carbon to give an organomercury alcohol. The reduction step with sodium borohydride is complex and involves radicals. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the…
