Chapter 26, Problem 26.12P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Stereoisomers formed when trans-hex-3-ene is treated with CH2I2 and Zn(Cu) are to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Nonhalogenated cyclopropanes can be prepared by the reaction of alkene with organozinc carbenoid. The reaction is known as Simmons-Smith reaction. The relative position of substituents of the alkene is preserved and stereospecific products are formed.
