From trans-1-chloro-2-isopropylcyclohexane, only 3-isopropylcyclohexene, the less substituted alkene, is formed. Using conformational analysis, explain why this product is observed. Also, will the E2 reaction with trans-1-chloro- 2-isopropylcyclohexane or cis-1-chloro-2-isopropylcyclohexane occur faster under the same basic conditions? CH;O Na* CH3OH CI trans-1-Chloro-2 (R)-3-Isopropylcyclohexene isopropylcyclohexane

Predict the stereochemistry observed in the hydroboration, halogenation, and dihydrox- ylation reactions of alkenes.
which of the following general statements is true about the addition of HBr to conjugated dienes (A) At low temperature, the 1,2-adduct predominates (B) At low temperature, the 1,4-adduct predominates (C) At high temperature, the 1,2-adduct predominates (D) Temperature does not affect the outcome of the reaction
The bicyclic alkene P can be prepared by thermal electrocyclic ringclosure from cyclodecadiene Q or by photochemical electrocyclic ringclosure from cyclodecadiene R. Draw the structures of Q and R, andindicate the stereochemistry of the process by which each reactionoccurs.
Write down all possible alkene products from the following Elemination reaction (no mechanism is required) indicate which one will be major product. And explain it?
1-Chloro-1,2-diphenylethane can undergo E2 elimination to give either cis- or trans-1,2-diphenylethylene (stilbene). Draw Newman projections of the reactive conformations leading to both possible products, and suggest a rea- son why the trans alkene is the major product. 1) -CHCH2- "OCH3 -CH=CH- 1-Chloro-1,2-diphenylethane trans-1,2-Diphenylethylene 2) 1 Predict the major alkene product of the following E1 reaction: HOAC CH3CHCBr ?

Step 6: Now that you have determined the substrates and mechanism of a Diels-Alder reaction, you will learn how to recognize when you should use the Diels-Alder reaction. In a synthesis reaction, if you are given a cyclohexene product with no other obvious functional group transformations and an electron-withdrawing group two carbons away from the alkene, it is likely made via the Diels-Alder reaction. Deduce the structures of the starting materials to form the Diels-Alder adduct shown. ..... CN CN Diene + Dienophile
