b) The Wolf-Kishner reduction is a reaction used in Organic Chemistry to convert carbonyl functionalities into methylene group. The reaction was used to convert an aldehyde or ketone to an alkane using hydrazine, base and thermal conditions. The mechanism begins with the attack of hydrazine of the aldehyde or ketone. Stage 1: The reaction of aldehyde/ketone with hydrazine to produce hydrazine Stage 2: Reaction with the base and heat to convert hydrozone to alkane Write the mechanism of the reaction.
A newer generation of antipsychotics, among them clozapine, are now used to treat the symptoms of schizophrenia. These drugs are more effective than earlier drugs in improving patient response in the areas of social withdrawal, apathy, memory, comprehension, and judgment. They also produce fewer side effects such as seizures and tardive dyskinesia (involuntary body movements). In the following synthesis of clozapine, Step 1 is an Ullmann coupling, a type of nucleophilic aromatic substitution that uses a copper catalyst. (a) Show how you might bring about formation of the amide in Step 2. (b) Propose a reagent for Step 3. (c) Propose a mechanism for Step 4. (d) Is clozapine chiral? If so, how many of the possible stereoisomers are formed in this synthesis?
1. Predict the product, and propose a mechanism for the following nucleophilic addition to aldehyde or ketone. Are the products different from one another? Why do the reactions proceed via different mechanisms? Note the charges on the intermediates of acid and base catalyzed reactions.

Write a mechanism that accounts for the formation of ethyl isopropyl ether as one of the products in the following reaction. CI OEt HCI EtOH Write the mechanism for step one of this reaction. Show lone pairs and formal charges. Only the acidic hydrogen should be drawn out with a covalent bond.

Hello I am stuck on this question, can I get help please? A CLEAR explanation with Drawings and the correct answer would be helpful. Thank you!
Two methods convert an alkyl halide to a carboxylic acid having one more carbon atom. Depending on the structure of the alkyl halide, one or both of these methods may be employed. For each alkyl halide, write out a stepwise sequence that converts it to a carboxylic acid with one more carbon atom. If both methods work, draw both routes. If one method cannot be used, state why it can't.
1. Rank the following species in order of increasing acidity. Explain your reasons for ordering them as you do. HF NH3 H2SO4 CH3OH CH3COOH H3O+ H2O2. Consider the following compounds that vary from nearly nonacidic to strongly acidic. Draw the conjugate bases of these compounds, and explain why the acidity increases so dramatically with substitution by nitro groups. CH4 CH3NO2 CH2(NO2)2 CH(NO2)3
carbon-carbon double bonds are attacked by electrophiles but not by nucleophiles. An exception to this generalization is the reactivity of a,B-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones toward nucleophiles. Even though an isolated carbon-carbon double bond does not react with 2° amines such as dimethylamine, 3-buten-2-one reacts readily by regioselective addition. Et,NH + CH,=CH-CH,-CH, no reaction Et,NH + CH,=CH-C-CH, - Et,N-CH,-CH,-Č-CH, Diethylamine 3-Buten-2-one (Methyl vinyl ketone) Account for the addition of nucleophiles to the carbon-carbon double bond of an a, B-unsaturated aldehyde or ketone and the regioselectivity of the addition.
