Question
Chapter 30.SE, Problem 40AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The observation that a compound having a cyclobutane ring fused to a five membered ring is heated, [1Z,3Z]-1,3-cycloheptadiene is formed while a compound having a cyclobutane ring fused to an eight membered ring is heated, [1E,3Z]-1,3-cyclodecadiene is formed is to be explained. Further why opening of the eight membered ring occurs at low temperature is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
An electrocyclic reaction involves the cyclization of a conjugated acyclic system. These reactions are reversible and are highly stereospecific.
In elecrocyclic reactions involving even number of electron pairs, a thermal reaction occurs in conrotatory manner and a photochemical reaction occurs in disrotatory manner.
In elecrocyclic reactions involving odd number of electron pairs, a thermal reaction occurs in disrotatory manner and a photochemical reaction occurs in conrotatory manner.
