Chapter 6, Problem 74P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The products of the following reactions should be determined and if the products can exist as stereoisomers, it must be shown.

Concept Introduction:

Halogen addition to an alkene:

The addition reaction of halides to alkenes leads to the formation of vicinal dihalide as the product. The two halogens will be on the adjacent carbons.

Mainly Br2andCl2 undergo addition reaction with alkenes and the reaction is carried out in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane.

In general, the reaction can be shown as below.

EBK ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 6, Problem 74P , additional homework tip  1

When the bromine approaches the alkene, one bromine accepts the electrons from alkene and give them to the other bromine and a cyclic bromonium ion intermediate is formed.

The formed unstable intermediate reacts with Br- and the product is formed.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The products of the following reactions should be determined and if the products can exist as stereoisomers, it must be shown.

Concept Introduction:

Acid Catalysed addition of water: When water is added to alkene in the presence of an acid, the product formed will be an alcohol.

Concept Introduction:

Addition of a hydrogen halide to an alkene:

An alkyl halide is formed, if an hydrogen halide is used as an electrophile in the addition to alkene.

The H+ adds to one of the sp2 carbon and the nucleophile halide ion to other sp2 carbon

The general reaction is represented as:
