Question
Chapter 11, Problem 8RQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The two requirements needed to declare a mechanism plausible and an explanation regarding the use of the term ‘plausible’ rather than the term ‘correct’ mechanism is to be stated. The authentication of the statement, ‘most reactions occur by a one-step mechanism” is to be determined.
Concept introduction: A reaction mechanism consists of a series of elementary steps. The slowest step in a chemical process that leads to change is termed as the rate determining step for the given
To determine: The two requirements needed to declare a mechanism plausible and an explanation regarding the use of the term ‘plausible’ rather than the term ‘correct’ mechanism; the authentication of the statement, ‘most reactions occur by a one-step mechanism”.

CH3
CH,CH3
Draw the Newman projection in staggered conformation for isoleucine by viewing the molecule along the
C-2-C-3 bond.
1. Edit the Newman projection on the canvas.
2. Replace the appropriate hydrogens with the appropriate -CH3 or other groups.
3. If you need to start over, Undo or choose a Newman projection from the Templates toolbar
(bottom).
Important: Never delete the hydrogen atoms or bonds directly attached to the template, and do not move
them by dragging or dropping them. That will break the projections structures. Only replace them!
