Chapter 6.SE, Problem 25EDRM
When isopropylidenecyclohexane is treated with strong acid at room temperature, isomerization occurs by the mechanism shown below to yield 1-isopropylcyclohexene:
At equilibrium, the product mixture contains about 30% isopropyl-idenecyclohexane and about 70% 1-isopropylcyclohexene.
(a) What is an approximate value of Keq for the reaction?
(b) Since the reaction occurs slowly at room temperature, what is its approximate ∆G‡?
(c) Draw an energy diagram for the reaction.
