Chapter 28, Problem 35P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A mechanism should be proposed for the given reaction.

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.

In an electrocyclic reaction “one new sigma- bond is formed or brocken.”

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 28, Problem 35P , additional homework tip  1

Diels-alder reaction is a cycloaddition reaction which is occurs between a conjugated diene and substituted alkene to form cyclohexene ring system.  This concerted reaction can be accelerated by heating or using some catalysts.

Mechanism gives the step wise processes occurs in a particular reaction.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The product should be determined for the given reaction if trans-2-butene were used instead of ethene.

Predict the major products of the following organic reaction: + A Δ ? Some important notes: • Draw the major product, or products, of the reaction in the drawing area below. • If there aren't any products, because no reaction will take place, check the box below the drawing area instead. Be sure to use wedge and dash bonds when necessary, for example to distinguish between major products that are enantiomers. Check Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
