Question
Chapter 16, Problem 32PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The product of the given reaction should be identified, if 1,2-dibromocycloheptane reacts with excess of potassium tert-butoxide in the given reaction.
Concept introduction:
- The conjugated dienes absorb UV light.
- In an elimination reaction,
alkenes are formed whenalkyl halides are treated with bases via eliminating one proton and one halo group of the alkyl halide. - E2 reaction is a bimolecular elimination reaction in which only one step is involved and it is favored by the strong bases.
- The product of the elimination reaction is depends upon the two β-positions of alkyl halide. If the β-positions are identical and the products formed are also identical.
- Potassium tert-butoxide is a strong bulky base.
To identify: the product of the given reaction of 1,2-dibromocycloheptane and excess of potassium tert-butoxide and it absorbs UV light.
#assumes E2 reactions are involved in the given reaction (because the product should have double bonds to absorb UV light).
