Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: All the steps and reagents needed to convert cyclohexane into given compound is to be shown.

Concept introduction: Halogens react with alkanes in presence of heat or light to form alkyl halides. This is known as halogenation reaction. This is a free radical substitution reaction. In this the halogen substitutes the hydrogen atom from CH sigma bond of the alkane.

Dehydrohalogenation reaction is a class of reaction in which the removal of hydrogen halide takes place in the presence of strong base.

The reaction between bromine and alkene proceeds via the formation of cyclic bromonium intermediate. This is an anti addition.

In the presence of peroxide, alkene is oxidized to epoxide. This is known as epoxidation. This is a syn addition. The weak pi bond of alkene and weak OO bond of peroxide are broken and two new CO bonds are formed. Breaking of bonds and formation of bonds takes place in single step. mCPBA is meta-chloroperoxybenzoicacid.
