Chapter 4, Problem 4.68P

Cyclopropane and cyclobutane have similar strain energy despite the f act that the C C C bond angles of cyclopropane are much smaller than those of cyclobutane. Suggest an explanation for this observation, considering all sources of strain discussed in Chapter 4.

The pentadienyl radical, H2C“CH¬CH“CH¬CH2#, has its unpaired electron delocalized over three carbon atoms.(a) Use resonance forms to show which three carbon atoms bear the unpaired electron.(b) How many MOs are there in the molecular orbital picture of the pentadienyl radical?(c) How many nodes are there in the lowest-energy MO of the pentadienyl system? How many in the highest-energy MO?(d) Draw the MOs of the pentadienyl system in order of increasing energy. (continued)762 CHAPTER 15 Conjugated Systems, Orbital Symmetry, and Ultraviolet Spectroscopy(e) Show how many electrons are in each MO for the pentadienyl radical (ground state).(f) Show how your molecular orbital picture agrees with the resonance picture showing delocalization of the unpairedelectron onto three carbon atoms.(g) Remove the highest-energy electron from the pentadienyl radical to give the pentadienyl cation. Which carbon atomsshare the positive charge? Does this picture agree with the resonance picture?(h) Add an…
Compounds X and Y both have the formula C7H14. Both X and Y react with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2-methylhexane. The heat of hydrogenation of X is greater than that of Y. Both X and Y react with HCI to give the same single C₂H₁5Cl compound as the major product. What is the structure of X? • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. 7 0▾ ChemDoodleⓇ 146
