Chapter 15, Problem 44P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The product formed in the given reaction is to be predicted, and the reason for the formation of this product is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Aryl halides undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions in the presence of strong base, :NH2 in liquid ammonia through an elimination-addition mechanism. This mechanism involves the formation of a highly unstable intermediate called benzyne.

Activating groups like alkyl groups gives substitution at the ortho and para position. Because they increase the electron densities at the ortho and para due to the delocalization of pi electrons of benzene ring. Ortho and para sites of the benzene ring is highly electron rich and thus electrophile usually attacks on these sites.

In the following sequence of reactions which products are identified correctly? Compound A (C 7H 11B1) is treated with magnesium in ether to give B (C 7H 11MgBr), which reacts violently with D 20 to give 1-methylcyclohexene B with acetone (CH 3COCH 3) followed by hydrolysis gives D (C 10H 180). Heating D with with a deuterium atom on the methyl group C. Reaction concentrated H 2SO 4 gives E (C 10H 16), which decolorizes two equivalents of Br 2 to give F (C 10H 16Br 2). E undergoes hydrogenation with excess H 2 and a Pt catalyst to give isobutylcyclohexane. O The correct structure of C is OH O The correct structure of D is O The correct structure of C is Br OI The correct structure of F is 8r
Treatment of cis-4-bromocyclohexanol with HO– affords compound A and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. Treatment of trans-4- bromocyclohexanol under the same conditions forms compound B and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. A and B contain different functional groups and are not isomers of each other. Propose structures for A and B and offer an explanation for their formation.
3) Optically active alkyl bromide A (CÂH₁7Br) reactions with potassium tert-butoxide in tert- butanol to yield compound B (CH₁6). Compound B affords the carbonyl compound shown below and formaldehyde when subjected to ozonolysis followed by a reductive workup. Write the reactions and draw the structures of A & B. شد
