Chapter 28.5, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

[1,3]sigmatropic migrations of hydrogen cannot occur under thermal conditions but [1,3] sigmatropic migration of carbon can.  Reason for this should be explained.

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. 1) Electrocyclic reactions
  2. 2) Cycloaddition reactions
  3. 3) Sigmatropic reactions

In a sigmatropic reaction “ one new sigma-bond is formed as another breaks.”

Sigmatropic rearrangement reactions are named with digits.  For example a [1, 3] sigmatropic rearrangement describe a reaction in which the residue migrates from position 1 to position 3.  Migration of carbon and hydrogen will occur in a sigmatropic rearrangement reaction.  When hydrogen migrates in a sigmatropic rearrangement, the s orbital of the hydrogen is partially bonded to both the migration origin and the migration terminus in the transition state.  Migration of hydrogen in suprafacial and antarafacial rearrangement can be represented as follows,

Migration of carbon occurs through two ways because it has a two lobed p orbital. Carbon can simultaneously interact with the migration origin and the migration terminus using one lobe of its p orbital.

Migration of carbon in suprafacial and antarafacial rearrangement can be represented as follows,

Carbon migrating with one lobe of its p orbital interacting

You are trying to decide if there is a single reagent you can add that will make the following synthesis possible without any other major side products: xi 1. ☑ 2. H₂O хе i Draw the missing reagent X you think will make this synthesis work in the drawing area below. If there is no reagent that will make your desired product in good yield or without complications, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. There is no reagent that will make this synthesis work without complications. : ☐ S ☐
Predict the major products of this organic reaction: H OH 1. LiAlH4 2. H₂O ? Note: be sure you use dash and wedge bonds when necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. G C टे
For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new C-C 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. NH2 CI MgCl ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? Yes No MgBr ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? Yes No G टे
