1. An experimental technique called ¹3C-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
allows chemists to tell how many different kinds of carbon there are in a molecule
and whether carbons are primary (1°), secondary (2°), tertiary (3°), or quaternary (4°).
Give dash (Kekule) structures (i.e., use lines for electron pair bonds) for the
following compounds having a molecular formula C6H12. Also, on each
structure, identify carbons as 1º, 2º, 3º, 4º; tell how many different kinds of C's
there are; and designate which C's are equivalent.
a) A compound having only single bonds and only secondary carbons.
b) A compound having only single bonds and primary, secondary, and
tertiary carbons.
c) A compound having only single bonds and only primary, secondary, and
quaternary carbons.
d) A compound having only single bonds and primary, secondary, tertiary,
and quaternary carbons.
Use resonance theory and the Hammond postulate to explain why 3-chloroprop-1-ene (CH2 = CHCH2Cl) is more reactive than 1-chloropropane (CH3CH2CH2Cl) in SN1 reactions.
Does a unit of unsaturation of 5 signify anything?
