![### Organic Chemistry Reactions: Intermediate and Final Products
**Exercise 15: Draw the structures of intermediate and final product by describing the reaction mechanism of the following reactions:**
#### (a)
**Reaction:**
\[ \text{H}_3\text{C} - \text{C} \equiv \text{C} - \text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3 \xrightarrow{\text{Hg(OAc)}_2} \text{Intermediate} \xrightarrow{\text{NaBH}_4} \text{Product} \]
**Steps Involved:**
1. First, the alkyne undergoes a reaction with mercury acetate (Hg(OAc)2) to form an intermediate.
2. The intermediate then reacts with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) to produce the final product.
#### (b)
**Reaction:**
\[ \text{1-methylcyclopentane} \xrightarrow{\text{BH}_3, \text{THF solvent}} \text{Intermediate} \xrightarrow{\text{H}_2\text{O}_2, \text{OH}^-} \text{Product} \]
**Steps Involved:**
1. 1-methylcyclopentane reacts with borane (BH3) in the presence of tetrahydrofuran (THF) as the solvent to form an intermediate.
2. The intermediate is then treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and hydroxide ion (OH-) to yield the final product.
#### (c)
**Reaction:**
\[ \text{Cis-2-pentene} + \text{CHCl}_3 \xrightarrow{\text{KOH}} \]
**Steps Involved:**
1. Cis-2-pentene reacts with chloroform (CHCl3) in the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH) to produce a final product.
#### (d)
**Reaction:**
\[ \text{Cyclohexene} + \text{CH}_2\text{I}_2 \xrightarrow{\text{Zn(Cu), Ether}} \]
**Steps Involved:**
1. Cyclohexene reacts with diiodomethane (CH2I2) in the presence of zinc-copper couple (Zn(Cu)) and ether to yield the final product.
**Note:** For each of these reactions, the illustration](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F706ad80a-f585-4c53-91a1-2729de7fd739%2F99446a69-967c-4d39-9b0a-2d2cabadafbb%2F3oq0ekv_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
