Tell me how you will prepare the following: A) You need to prepare 1-chloro-1-methylcyclohexane as the only product of a chemical reaction. B) You need to prepare 1,2-dibromo-1-methylcyclohexane as the only product of a chemical reaction. C) You need to prepare 2-bromo-1-methylcyclohexane as the only product of a chemical reaction. D) You need to prepare 1-bromo-1-methylcyclohexane as the only product of a chemical reaction.
On occasion, we need to produce a dish, and while we have a pantry or stock-room, we are challenged by not having what we need to produce it. In short, we may not have a reactant we need for a
Students are similar to the judges on the show; they don't care about the sabotages or what the faculty member had to endure. However they expect reactants for their experiments to be available when they hit the lab.
If I (the faculty member) come out of the stockroom with the following basket of reactants: (There may be a few I do not use or need... sort-of like having broccoli in the basket for making bacon and eggs sunny side up....):
- HCl
- HBr
- hydrogen peroxide
- 1-methyl-1cyclohexene (or methylcyclohexene) [It is a fresh bottle, still with its seal unbroken, distilled and stored under nitrogen.]
- water (H2O)
- a cylinder of chlorine gas
- a cylinder of bromine gas
