Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Newman projections must be utilized to explain why trans-stilbene is the major product when (S)-1-bromo-1,2-diphenylethane is used.
Concept Introduction :
During the elimination reaction, anti-periplanar groups are removed to form a double bond. Newman projection is the representation of a molecule when it is viewed through a particular bond between two atoms.
(b)
Interpretation:
Newman projections must be utilized to explain why trans-stilbene is the major product when (R)-1-bromo-1,2-diphenylethane is employed.
Concept Introduction :
During the elimination reaction, anti-periplanar groups are removed to form a double bond. Newman projection is the representation of a molecule when it is viewed through a particular bond between two atoms.
