(a) Explain how pyrrole is isoelectronic with the cyclopentadienyl anion.(b) Specifically, what is the difference between the cyclopentadienyl anion and pyrrole?(c) Draw resonance forms to show the charge distribution on the pyrrole structure.
The natural product halomon could theoretically arise from another naturally occurring compound known as myrcene. To accomplish
this, a biochemical process that could deliver the synthetic equivalent of BrCi to all three double bonds would be required. (Chem
Comm. 2014, 50, 13725)
(a) Using three molar equivalents of BrCL please provide a mechanism to account for the formation of the bracketed structure (you do
not need to show stereochemistry in this mechanism)

- • PRACTICE PROBLEM 8.12 Treating a hindered alkene such as 2-methyl-2-butene with BH3:THE leads to the for- mation of a dialkylborane instead of a trialkylborane. When 2 mol of 2-methyl-2-butene is added to 1 mol of BH3, the product formed is bis(3-methyl-2-butyl)borane, nicknamed in reagent "disiamylborane." Write its structure. Bis(3-methyl-2-butyl)borane is a useful certain syntheses that require a sterically hindered borane. (The name “disiamyl" comes from "disecondary-iso-amyl," a completely unsystematic and unacceptable name. The name "amyl" is an old common name for a five-carbon alkyl group.) donbyarrow_forwardGive reasons : (i) 2, 4-Dinitro chlorobenzene is much more reactive than chlorobenzene towards hydrolysis reaction with NaOH.
