Diels-Alder adduct
When heated, allyl aryl ethers and allyl vinyl ethers undergo a reaction called a Claisen rearrangement, a concerted reorganization of bonding electrons similar to the Diels-Alder reaction. The reaction proceeds through a six-membered, cyclic transition state.
Draw the structure of the expected product when this compound undergoes a Claisen rearrangement.
You do not have to consider stereochemistry.
For the purposes of this problem, assume that double bonds in an aromatic ring are localized at the positions indicated in the figure.
Include isomerization to a phenol IF appropriate.

Explain.arrow_forwardReaction of HBr with 3-methylcyclohexene yields a mixture of four products: cis-and trans-1-bromo-3-methylcyclohexane and cis-and trans-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane. The analogous reaction of HBr with 3-bromocyclohexene yields trans-1, 2-dibromocyclohexane as the soleproduct. Draw structures of the possible intermediates, and then explain why only a single product is formed in this reaction.arrow_forwardCompound A has the formula C₂H₁9Cl. B is a C₂H19Br compound. A and B undergo base-promoted E2 elimination to give the same alkene C as the major product as well as different minor products. C reacts with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2,6-dimethylheptane. Addition of HCI to C yields A as the major product.
