Textbook Question

Chapter 4, Problem 3LGP

When 1,2-dimethylcyclohexene is allowed to react with hydrogen in the presence of a platinum catalyst, the product of the reaction is a cycloalkane that has a melting point of –50 °C and a boiling point of 130 °C (at 760 torr).

(a) What is the structure of the produce of this reaction?

(b) Consult an appropriate resource (such as the web or a CRC handbook) and tell which stereoisomer it is.

(c) What does this experiment suggest about the mode of addition of hydrogen to the double bond?

The SN 1 mechanism starts with the rate-determining step which is the dissociation of the alkyl halide into a carbocation and a halide ion. The next step is the rapid reaction of the carbocation intermediate with the nucleophile; this step completes the nucleophilic substitution stage. The step that follows the nucleophilic substitution is a fast acid-base reaction. The nucleophile now acts as a base to remove the proton from the oxonium ion from the previous step, to give the observed product. Draw a curved arrow mechanism for the reaction, adding steps as necessary. Be sure to include all nonzero formal charges. Cl: Add/Remove step G Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
