The 2000 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for work on polyacetylenes. Acetylene can be polymerized using a Ziegler–Natta catalyst. The cis or trans stereochemistry of the products can be controlled by careful selection and preparation of the catalyst. The resulting polyacetylene is an electrical semiconductor with a metallic appearance. cis-Polyacetylene has a copper color, and trans-polyacetylene is silver. Draw the structures of cis- and trans-polyacetylene.
Polymerization of vinyl acetate gives poly(vinyl acetate). Hydrolysis of this polymer in aqueous sodium hydroxide gives the useful water-soluble polymer poly(vinyl alcohol). Draw the repeat units of both poly(vinyl acetate) and poly(vinyl alcohol).
5 Isopropylbenzene (C9H12) is commercially produced by Friedel–Crafts alkylation of compound H with 1-chloropropane in the presence of anhydrous aluminium chloride as a catalyst. CyH12 can be oxidized with strong oxidizing agent to form compound J. a) Draw the structure of H. b) Write the chemical reaction of isopropylbenzene to form compound J. c) Show the mechanism for the formation of isopropylbenzene (C,H12) from compound H. C,H¬B1+ OH¯→ C,H¬OH + NaBr The rate equation for the hydrolysis of C3H,Br with sodium hydroxide is: rate = k [C3H»Br] [OH ¯] a) Draw the structural formula of C3H¬Br. Explain your answer. b) State and show the mechanism of the reaction above. An alkyl halide E, C5H11B undergoes hydrolysis to form an alcohol F, CSH120. Alcohol F becomes cloudy immediately when reacted with a Lucas reagent. c) (i) (ii) Deduce the structures of E and F. State the type of reaction and propose the mechanism for the conversion of E to F. d) Draw the structure of the product formed…
