Question

Draw the major product to each of the following reactions.

 

### Organic Chemistry Reaction Pathways Below are several organic reactions demonstrating different chemical transformations: #### Reaction f. - **Reactant:** Cyclohexene with labeled carbon positions `a` and `b` on the double bond. - **Reagent:** Bromine (\( \text{Br}_2 \)) - **Reaction Path:** The double bond in cyclohexene will react with bromine to form a dibromide through an electrophilic addition mechanism. The product will have bromine atoms on carbons `a` and `b`. #### Reaction g. - **Reactant:** 2-Methyl-2-butene with double bond positions labeled as `a` and `b`. - **Reagent:** Ethanol (\( \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{OH} \)) in the presence of sulfuric acid (\( \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \)). - **Reaction Path:** The alkene will be subjected to an acidic medium in the presence of ethanol leading to an ether formation. This is an example of an alkoxymercuration-demercuration reaction where the double bond undergoes alkoxylation to yield an ether. #### Reaction h. - **Reactant:** 1-Butene with labeled carbon positions `a` and `b` on the double bond. - **Reagent:** Hydrogen (\( \text{H}_2 \)) in the presence of a palladium on carbon catalyst (Pd/C). - **Reaction Path:** This is a hydrogenation reaction where the double bond is reduced to a single bond, resulting in the corresponding alkane, butane in this case. These reactions demonstrate the versatility of alkenes in organic synthesis, transforming the double bond into various functional groups via different reagents and conditions.
