(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The dehydrohalogenation product that results if the given alkyl halide is heated in alcoholic KOH and the major and minor products if more than one product is formed by this reaction.

Interpretation: The dehydrohalogenation product that results if the given alkyl halide is heated in alcoholic KOH and the major and minor products if more than one product is formed by this reaction are to be predicted.

Concept introduction: The chemical reaction that consists of an alkyl halide, a good leaving group that reacts with Lewis base to form an alkene is termed as elimination reaction. In this reaction there is complete removal of the leaving group without any substitution.

The bimolecular elimination reaction that favours the removal of an HX substituent from an alkyl halide that needs a base to remove H from carbon adjacent to the leaving group that in turn forms a double bond is termed E2 elimination reaction.

The elimination of hydrogen halide molecule is termed as dehydrohalogenation. This type of reaction has an unfavourable enthalpy change but a favourable entropy change.

I have a question about this problem involving mechanisms and drawing curved arrows for acids and bases. I know we need to identify the nucleophile and electrophile, but are there different types of reactions? For instance, what about Grignard reagents and other types that I might not be familiar with? Can you help me with this? I want to identify the names of the mechanisms for problems 1-14, such as Gilman reagents and others. Are they all the same? Also, could you rewrite it so I can better understand? The handwriting is pretty cluttered. Additionally, I need to label the nucleophile and electrophile, but my main concern is whether those reactions differ, like the "Brønsted-Lowry acid-base mechanism, Lewis acid-base mechanism, acid-catalyzed mechanisms, acid-catalyzed reactions, base-catalyzed reactions, nucleophilic substitution mechanisms (SN1 and SN2), elimination reactions (E1 and E2), organometallic mechanisms, and so forth."
