Explain which of the following statements are true and which are
false.
a. When an intermediate is formed in a reaction there are two
activation energies.
b. The subtractive combination of two p orbitals gives a two-electron
filled * orbital.
c. n-Butane has a higher boiling point than 2-methylpropane because
in n-butane the attractive forces between molecules are reduced.
d. 4-Methylpent-1-ene is less stable than E-4-methylpent-2-ene.
e. The homolytic cleavage of a covalent bond results in two radicals.
A reaction flask contains 2-bromopentane in an ethanolic solution of sodium ethoxide at room temperature and result in the formation of two olefnic products. What is responsible for the formation of major and minor products. A. Different activated complex involved in the mechanism. B. Bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction. C. Bimolecular elimination reaction D. The presence of sodium ethoxide. E. The hybridization nature of secondary carbocation
Please answer the two items.
The following compounds are major products of an elimination reaction with an alkyl halide. Determine the structure of the alkyl halide. Write the overall reaction mechanism.
Tip: Remember your Markovnikov’s rule. Follow the progress of the reaction and look at the stability of the intermediate products and transition states to determine the minor and major products.
