Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of compound 2a in the given reaction has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Elimination reaction: In this reaction, two substituents are removed from the substrate to give the product in presence of base. Elimination of compound in presence of bulky base leads to less substituted
(b)
Interpretation:
The compound that contains deuterium in the given reaction has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Elimination reaction: In this reaction, two substituents are removed from the substrate to give the product in presence of base. Elimination of compound in presence of bulky base leads to less substituted alkene, in presence of strong base (not bulky) leads to more substituted alkene. A general elimination E2 mechanism is given as,
