Chapter 6, Problem 61IP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The curved arrows for each step of the mechanism must be drawn and the sequence of arrow pushing patterns must be identified.

Concept Introduction :

The curved arrow shows the electron flow; and thereby, it shows bond breaking and new bond formation. The alpha hydrogen of ketones is acidic due to electron withdrawing nature of the keto group.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

For the conversion of 4 to 5 the electrophilic and nucleophilic centers must be identified with the help of resonance.

Concept Introduction :

Electrophilic centers are those where there is low electron density. Nucleophilic centers are those where there is higher electron density.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Configuration of the newly formed chiral center during conversion of 4 to 5 must be determined. Why the other possible configuration is not observed must be explained.

Concept Introduction :

The configuration of a chiral center depends on the three dimensional orientations and priorities of different groups. Priorities of those groups can be determined using CIP (Cahn-Ingold-Prelog) priority rules according to which higher is the atomic number, higher is the priority.

(EXM 2, PRBLM 3) Here is this problem, can you explain it to me and show how its done. Thank you I need to see the work for like prbl solving.
can someone draw out the reaction mechanism for this reaction showing all bonds, intermediates and side products Comment on the general features of the 1H-NMR spectrum of isoamyl ester provided below
What would be the best choices for the missing reagents 1 and 3 in this synthesis? 1. PPh3 3 2. n-BuLi • Draw the missing reagents in the drawing area below. You can draw them in any arrangement you like. • Do not draw the missing reagent 2. If you draw 1 correctly, we'll know what it is. • Note: if one of your reagents needs to contain a halogen, use bromine. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
