Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the formation of an acetal from acidic methanol and 4-methylpentan-2-one in the fewest steps. When given the choice, draw the arrows that lead to the resonance structures with full octets around each atom other than hydrogen. Do not show any inorganic byproducts or counterions. Reagents needed for each step are provided in the boxes.

Draw a curved arrow mechanism to show the two resonance forms of the intermediate formed in the second electrophilic addition steps. You will need to modify the structure of the starting material to show this intermediate. Remember to include lone pairs and all nonzero formal charges. الملاحة Draw the structure of the intermediate in the second electrophilic addition and curved arrows to show resonance.
Finish the indicated reaction by filling in and starting materials, reagents or products as needed
Draw a structural formula of an alkene or alkenes (if more than one) that undergo acid-catalyzed hydration and without rearrangement give 1-methylcyclohexanol as the major product. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. ● If more than one structure fits the description, draw them all. • Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate structures with + signs from the drop-down menu. ● ● ✓ ? ChemDoodleⓇ n [ ]#
Curved arrows are used to illustrate the flow of electrons. Follow the arrows and draw the first intermediate formed in this reaction and the final product. Include all lone-pairs. Ignore any inorganic byproducts. Į :O: Draw Intermediate H3O+ H CH3 MgCl Q

When toluene is treated with sulfuric and nitric acids under special conditions, three nitro (NO2) groups are substituted for hydrogens at the 2, 4 and 6 positions on the ring (the next section discusses why the 2, 4, and 6 positions are substituted). The product is a highly explosive substance called 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene. This subastance is commonly known by a three letter name. What is it?

Why is it important that we are very careful in how much acid is added to neutralize the reaction? (Only pick one answer) If the solution becomes very acid it can be harmful to the skin Too much acid will increase vanillyl alcohols water solubility and inhibit crystal formation Too much acid will decrease vanillyl alcohols water solubility and inhibit crystal formation Excess acid will deprotonate the vanillyl alcohol and inhibit crystal formation
