Electrocyclic reactions involve the conversion of
Under photochemical condition, conrotatory process takes place in the given reaction. The orientation of substituents and stereochemistry around tetrahedral stereogenic centers and double bonds in the given reaction are shown below.
Figure 2
The conrotatory process involves the rotation of two orbitals in the same direction. The reaction in above figure implies that orbitals move in the same direction in the reactant molecule and the formation of trans product occurs. One methyl group is present above the plane and one methyl group is present below the plane in the product. Therefore, the product formed in the given photochemical electrocyclic ring closure reaction is

- For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new CC bond, and check the appropriate box. Next, for each reaction to which you answered "Yes" to in the table, draw this product in the drawing area below. Note for advanced students: for this problem, don't worry if you think this product will continue to react under the current conditions - just focus on the first stable product you expect to form in solution. དྲ。 ✗MgBr ?
