- Two substitution products result from the reaction between 3-chloro-3-methyl-1- butene with sodium acetate (CH3COO – Na +) in acetic acid under SN1. Identify the products.arrow_forwardGive reasons: (i) C—Cl bond length in chlorobenzene is shorter than C—Cl bond length in CH3—Cl.(ii) The dipole moment of chlorobenzene is lower than that of cyclohexyl chloride.(iii) SN1 reactions are accompanied by racemization in optically active alkyl halidesarrow_forwardOne compound that contributes to the “seashore smell” at beaches in Hawai‘i is dictyopterene D', a component of a brown edible seaweed called limu lipoa. Hydrogenation of dictyopterene D' with excess H2 in the presence of a Pd catalyst forms butylcycloheptane. Ozonolysis with O3 followed by (CH3)2S forms CH2(CHO)2, HCOCH2CH(CHO)2, and CH3CH2CHO. What are possible structures of dictyopterene D'?arrow_forward
- Methyl isocyanate, CH3 -N= C = O, is used in the industrial synthesis of a type of pesticide and herbicide known as a carbamate. As a historical note, an industrial accident in Bhopal, India, in 1984 resulted in leakage of an unknown quantity of this chemical into the air. An estimated 200,000 people were exposed to its vapors, and over 2000 of these people died. Q.) Methyl isocyanate reacts with strong acids, such as sulfuric acid, to form a cation. Will this molecule undergo protonation more readily on its oxygen or nitrogen atom? In considering contributing structures to each hybrid, do not consider structures in which more than one atom has an incomplete octetarrow_forwardA chemist synthesized compound X as a racemic mixture. When the ketone group in X was enzymatically reduced to the corresponding alcohol, a 100% yield was obtained of the product shown below. Choose the statement that best describes this result. ОН enzyme C;H1 `OCH,CH; pH 4.0 C3H1 `OCH,CH3 ОН ÕH X (racemic) (100% yield) One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme. The other enantiomer of compound X is unreactive, but rapidly equilibrates with the reactive enantiomer under the reaction conditions. Since compound X was racemic, it makes sense that only a single product was obtained. O The product is a meso compound, so either enantiomer of compound X gives the same product. One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme, while the other enantiomer of compound X remains unchanged.arrow_forwardAn optically active monoterpene (compound A) with molecular formula C10H18O undergoes catalytic hydrogenation to form an optically inactive compound with molecular formula C10H20O (compound B). When compound B is heated with acid, followed by reaction with O3 and then with dimethyl sulfide, one of the products obtained is 4-methylcyclohexanone. Give possible structures for compounds A and B.arrow_forward
- Alloocimene is a hydrocarbon found in turpentine. It has the molecular formula C₁0H16 and a UV absorption maximum at 290 nm. On hydrogenation with a palladium catalyst, 2,6-dimethyloctane is obtained. Ozonolysis of alloocimene, followed by treatment with zinc and acetic acid, produces the following four fragments: || CH3C-CH i O || || CH3CCH3 HC-CH Propose a structure for alloocimene. O || CH3CHarrow_forwardC12T04Q8272 Give the major product(s) of the following reaction. CrO3 он H,SO4 H. of HO, OMe HO. There is no reaction under these conditions or the correct product is not listed here.arrow_forwardAnswer Q43, 44, 45arrow_forward
- Some of the most useful compounds for organic synthesisare Grignard reagents (general formula R-MgX, where X is ahalogen), which are made by combining an alkyl halide, R-X,with Mg. They are used to change the carbon skeleton of a start-ing carbonyl compound in a reaction similar to that with R-Li:.(a) What is the product, after a final step with water, of thereaction between ethanal and the Grignard reagent of bromo-benzene? (b) What is the product, after a final step with water, ofthe reaction between 2-butanone and the Grignard reagent of2-bromopropane? (c) There are often two (or more) combina-tions of Grignard reagent and carbonyl compound that will givethe same product. Choose another pair of reactants to give theproduct in (a). (d) What carbonyl compound must react with aGrignard reagent to yield a product with the -OH group at theendof the carbon chain? (e) What Grignard reagent and carbonylcompound would you use to prepare 2-methyl-2-butanol?arrow_forwardCompound X, C,4H12Br2, is optically inactive. On treatment with strong base, X gives hydrocarbon Y, C14H10: Compound Y absorbs 2 equivalents of hydrogen when reduced over a palladium catalyst to give z (C14H14) and reacts with ozone to give one product, benzoic acid (C,Hg02). Draw the structure of compound Z. • Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. • Ignore alkene stereochemistry. • If more than one structure fits the description, draw them all. • Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. • Separate structures with + signs from the drop-down menu.
