3. Yilong did this reaction below and got multiple products. Show the mechanism(s) and products. Be clear about stereochemistry. • If he put the products into a polarimeter, what kind of reading would he get? How are the molecules related? H3C 1) BH3, THF 2) H2O2, NaOH
Show the mechanism for the following
The S 1 mechanism starts with the rate-determining step which is the dissociation of the alkyl halide into a carbocation and a halide ion. The next step is the rapid reaction of the carbocation intermediate with the nucleophile; this step, completes the nucleophilic substitution stage. The step that follows the nucleophilic substitution is a fast acid-base reaction. The nucleophile now acts as a base to remove the proton from the oxonium ion from the previous step, to give the observed product. Draw a curved arrow mechanism for the reaction, adding steps as necessary. Be sure to include all nonzero formal charges.

Why is a strong acid (like HCI) used in a Grignard reaction? O 1) A strong acid is used in the Grignar reaction in order to protonate the carbonyl in order to make a better leaving group, OH. Once teh OH leaves, the alcohol group is reformed due to water. A stable tetrahedral intermediate with a negatively charged oxygen forms O 2) that does not possess a leaving group. This intermediate will exist until a proton source from the strong acid protonates the negatively charged oxygen, affording the neutral alcohol product. 3) The use of a strong acid is not necessary. It is simply recommended as it increases the yield produced in the reaction. 4) The use of a strong acid is necessary for the formation of a Grignard reagent. Without a strong acid, the organomagnesium compound cannot be formed.
The conversion of alcohols into alkyl halides by reaction with hydrogen halides is an example of a Nucleophilic Substitution Reaction. This kind of reaction can proceed by two different mechanisms depending on the structure of alcohol substrates used. Generally, primary alcohols are substituted via SN2 mechanism, while secondary and tertiary alcohols undergo SN1 mechanism.

3. Draw mechanism and energy profile diagram when chlorine reacts with propane. Write a mechanism using half arrows for initiation, propagation and termination steps. Draw an energy profile diagram similar to question #2, two curves for major and minor products. Indicate minor and major products. Which product is more stable and why? Explain is Hammond's postulate?
Please answer the two items. The following compounds are major products of an elimination reaction with an alkyl halide. Determine the structure of the alkyl halide. Write the overall reaction mechanism. Tip: Remember your Markovnikov’s rule. Follow the progress of the reaction and look at the stability of the intermediate products and transition states to determine the minor and major products.
