Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

A curved-arrow mechanism for the cyclization of 2,3- oxidosqualene is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A chemical reaction in organic chemistry which is used for the synthesis of cyclopentenones is known as cyclization reaction.

The nucleophilic substitution reactions are the reactions in which one nucleophile attacks the electrophilic center and eliminates another group in the compound. These reactions depend upon the nucleophilicity and concentration of the nucleophile.

The SN2 reaction is a nucleophilic substitution bimolecular single-step reaction in which the addition of nucleophile and removal of the leaving group takes place simultaneously.

Using reaction free energy to predict equilibrium composition Consider the following equilibrium: 2NOCI (g) 2NO (g) + Cl2 (g) AGº =41. kJ Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 4.50 atm of nitrosyl chloride (NOCI) and 6.38 atm of chlorine (C12) at 212. °C. Answer the following questions about this system: ? rise Under these conditions, will the pressure of NOCI tend to rise or fall? x10 fall Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO? In other words, if you said the pressure of NOCI will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO? Similarly, if you said the pressure of NOCI will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise by adding NO? yes no If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO needed to reverse it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. 0.035 atm ✓ G 00. 18 Ar

€ + Suppose the molecule in the drawing area below were reacted with H₂ over a platinum catalyst. Edit the molecule to show what would happen to it. That is, turn it into the product of the reaction. Also, write the name of the product molecule under the drawing area. Name: ☐ H C=0 X H- OH HO- H HO- -H CH₂OH ×
