Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The cyclic product that is formed when the given decatetraene undergoes thermal electrocyclic ring closure is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Electrocyclic reactions involve the conversion of σ bonds into π bonds or π bonds into σ bonds. These reactions can take place in photochemical as well as thermal conditions. The photochemical and thermal reactions take place in the presence of light and heat respectively.

Curved arrows aid in determining the movement and flow of electrons in the reaction.The electrons that take part in the chemical reactions are shown by the curved arrows.

For the single step reaction: A + B → 2C + 25 kJ If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8 kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition state. In the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change the graph. Label any new line "catalyst" and label any new activation energy.
