Chapter 2, Problem 2.37AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The potential energy versus dihedral angle for 1, 2-dichloroethane showing maximum and minimum energy with appropriate conformer is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Newman projection is a way of representing the groups attached to carbon atoms in the C-C bonds. This is used to determine the interaction between the groups attached to carbon atoms and the dihedral angle. The front carbon atom in the Newman projection is represented by dot and the end on carbon atom is represented by circle. The groups attached to the carbon atoms are then drawn by the line.

The energy of the conformers varies with change in their dihedral angle. The plot of this variation is known as potential energy curve.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The conformer present in highest amount in a sample of 1, 2-dichloroethane is to be stated.

5) Oxaloacetic Acid is an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of citric acid. Synthesize oxaloacetic acid using a mixed Claisen Condensation reaction with two different esters and a sodium ethoxide base. Give your answer as a scheme Hint 1: Your final acid product is producing using a decarboxylation reaction. Hint 2: Look up the structure of oxalic acid. HO all OH oxaloacetic acid
20. The Brusselator. This hypothetical system was first proposed by a group work- ing in Brussels [see Prigogine and Lefever (1968)] in connection with spatially nonuniform chemical patterns. Because certain steps involve trimolecular reac tions, it is not a model of any real chemical system but rather a prototype that has been studied extensively. The reaction steps are A-X. B+X-Y+D. 2X+ Y-3X, X-E. 305 It is assumed that concentrations of A, B, D, and E are kept artificially con stant so that only X and Y vary with time. (a) Show that if all rate constants are chosen appropriately, the equations de scribing a Brusselator are: dt A-(B+ 1)x + x²y, dy =Bx-x²y. di
