Why is benzene less reactive toward electrophiles than an alkene, even though it has more π electrons than an alkene (six versus two)?
Lactones, cyclic esters such as compound A, are prepared by halolactonization, an addition reaction to an alkene. For example, iodolactonization of B forms lactone C, a key intermediate in the synthesis of prostaglandin PGF2α (Section 4.15). Draw a stepwise mechanism for this addition reaction.
Explain addition of H2O to an alkyne ?
