(a)
Interpretation: The product of given reaction has to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Pericyclic reactions are “ any concerted reaction in which bonds are formed or brocken in a cyclic transition state”. There is a single transition state from start to finish, in contrast to a stepwise reaction.
There are mainly three types of pericyclic reactions,
- 1) Electrocyclic reactions
- 2) Cycloaddition reactions
- 3) Sigmatropic reactions
In an electrocyclic reaction “one new sigma- bond is formed or brocken.”
Woodward –Hoffmann rules are the set of rules used to vindicate or predict certain aspects of the stereo chemical outcome and activation energy of pericyclic reactions.
Woodward – Hoffmann rules for Electrocyclic reactions are listed below
A photochemical reaction takes place when a reactant absorbs light and a thermal reaction takes place without the absorption of light.
Woodward – Hoffmann rules for the configuration of electrocyclic reactions are,

I have to show, with ARROWS and STRUCTURES, the mechanism of the reaction at the bottom. Also I have to show by mecanism why the reaction wouldn't work if the alcohol was primary. I also tried to draw the mechanism, tell me what to change. Please note that its an AMIDE thats formed not an AMINE the nitrogen has ONE hydrogen and one Phenyl-C-Phenyl. I already asked for this mechanism and got as a final product ...-NH2 not whats shown on the picture, thank you Ths second part. QUESTION 3. I just need a way to synthesize the lactone A, I already started please continue from where I left it Second image: I simply need the products, substrates or reagents, thank youarrow_forwardIndicate how to prepare a 10% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution to a slightly alkaline pH.arrow_forward

- Write the electron configuration of an atom of the element highlighted in this outline of the Periodic Table: 1 23 4 5 6 7 He Ne Ar Kr Xe Rn Hint: you do not need to know the name or symbol of the highlighted element! ☐arrow_forwardCompare these chromatograms of three anti-psychotic drugs done by HPLC and SFC. Why is there the difference in separation time for SFC versus HPLC? Hint, use the Van Deemter plot as a guide in answering this question. Why, fundamentally, would you expect a faster separation for SFC than HPLC, in general?arrow_forwardA certain inorganic cation has an electrophoretic mobility of 5.27 x 10-4 cm2s-1V-1. The same ion has a diffusion coefficient of 9.5 x 10-6cm2s-1. If this ion is separated from cations by CZE with a 75cm capillary, what is the expected plate count, N, at an applied voltage of 15.0kV? Under these separation conditions, the electroosmotic flow rate was 0.85mm s-1 toward the cathode. If the detector was 50.0cm from the injection end of the capillary, how long would it take in minutes for the analyte cation to reach the detector after the field was applied?arrow_forward
