Chapter 12, Problem 12.44AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason as to why ionization of a π electron requires less energy than ionization of a σ electron is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Each group in a compound exhibits a characteristic fragmentation pattern that help to analyze its mass spectrum. The peak of each and every fragment is observed at different frequency.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The structure of the molecular ion of 1-heptene formed by ionization of a π electron is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Each group in a compound exhibits a characteristic fragmentation pattern that help to analyze its mass spectrum. The peak of each and every fragment is observed at different frequency. Molecular ion is the radical cation which is formed by ejection of electrons from a molecule when a beam of high-energy electrons are bombarded on a molecule.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The curved-arrow mechanism that shows the conversion of the molecular ion of 1-heptene into the allyl cation is to be drawn.

Identify the missing starting materials/ reagents/ products in the following reactions. Show the stereochemistry clearly in the structures, if any. If there is a major product, draw the structures of the major product with stereochemistry clearly indicated where applicable. Show only the diastereomers (you do not have to draw the pairs of enantiomers). If you believe that multiple products are formed in approximately equal amounts (hence neither is the major product), draw the structures of the products, and show the detailed mechanism of these reactions to justify the formation of the multiple products. If you believe no product is formed, explain why briefly. (6 mark for each, except f and g, which are 10 mark each)
3. What starting material would you use to synthesize 3-hydroxypentanoic acid using a NaBH4 reduction?
1. Give stereochemical (Fischer projection) formulas for all (but no extras) the stereoisomers that could theoretically form during the reduction of a. the carbonyl group of 2-methyl-3--pentanone b. both carbonyl groups of 2,4-pentanedione (careful!) 2. Predict the products of the reduction of O=CCH2CH2CH2C=O with a. LiAlH4 b. NaBH4 CH3 OH
