Question
Chapter 26.8, Problem 27CC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A mechanism for the given transformation needs to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Terpenes are constructed from dimethyl allyl pyrophosphate and isopentenyl pyrophosphate. In the synthesis of terpene pyrophosphate is the leaving group as it is a weak base. Nucleophilic attack happens to form another carbocation. Finally proton transfer happens to give the final product.
The terpene synthesis involves the following steps,
- Loss of OPP (pyrophosphate group)
- Nucleophilic attack
- Deprotonation
To draw: a mechanism for the given transformation.
