Chapter 6.SE, Problem 41AP
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 6.SE, Problem 41AP , additional homework tip  1

Interpretation:

The reaction of the alkene, 2-butene, with a proton to give a carbocation is to be shown using curved arrows. The structure of the carbocation formed as also to be given.

Concept introduction:

The double bond in alkenes is nucleophilic. The π electrons can be donated to a proton. By donating the π electrons one of the carbons in the double bond forms a new C-H bond while the other carbon gets a positive charge resulting in a carbocation.

Curved arrows start from a nucleophilic source (neutral or negatively charged) and end in an electrophilic sink (neutral or positively charged). During the flow of the electrons the octet rule must be maintained both in the source and sink.

To show:

Using curved arrows the reaction of the alkene, 2-butene, with a proton to give a carbocation and also to give the structure of the carbocation.

b)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 6.SE, Problem 41AP , additional homework tip  2

Interpretation:

The reaction of the alkene, cyclopentene, with a proton to give a carbocation is to be shown using curved arrows. The structure of the carbocation formed as also to be given.

Show a mechanism for reaction that follow. Use curved arrows to show electron flow, and be sure to show all steps. Draw out all bonds (particularly those to hydrogen atoms) so that you can show the arrow pushing effectively.
Add curved arrows to show the forming and breaking of bonds in the reaction below. C с Ċ Add/Remove step
In Part 1, draw a mechanism for the reaction of ammonia with butanoic acid. In the box to the left, draw any necessary curved arrows. Show the products of the reaction in the box to the right. Include any nonzero formal charges and all lone pairs of electrons. In Part 2, check the box to indicate which side of the reaction is favored at equilibrium.
