Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The stereochemical outcome of the given molecule treated with strong base to produce major product should be draw and identified.
Concept Introduction:
E2 elimination reaction: E2 elimination occurs in a compound when the leaving group is antiperiplaner to the β-proton in presence of strong base.
Stereospecific reaction: reaction undergoes from a stereoisomer to a unique stereoisomeric product.
Newman projection: Newman projection of molecule is one type of representations for the
From the angle of observer the front carbon is proximal and second carbon is distal.
In wedge-dash line representation wedge is coming out of the plane and dash is going behind the plane, the wedge line and the dash line of front carbon in Newman projection are pointing up and the wedge line and the dash line of back carbon in Newman projection are pointing down.
