Question
Chapter 8, Problem 16PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the formation of given products is to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon, or a functional group, is substituted by any other functional group, is called a substitution reaction.
Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed, is called an elimination reaction.
Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated bonds by addition of molecules.

When tert-butyl bromide is heated with an equal amount of ethanol in an inert solvent, one of the products is ethyl tert-butyl ether. (a) What happens to the reaction rate if the concentration of ethanol is doubled?
When 2-iodo-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane is heated in acetic acid, CH3COOH, a mixture of
substitution and elimination products is obtained. Provide structures for all possible
products, writing [not drawing] the name of the mechanism by which each one is
formed.
Grignard reagent is a versatile tool in synthetic organic chemistry. Using bromocyclopentane as a starting material, show how a Grignard reagent, X, is synthesized.
Reaction of X with water produces compound Y while treatment in carbon dioxide followed by hydrolysis forms compound Z. 3-methyl-2butanone reacts with X and hydrolyses to yield compound AA. Draw the structural formulae of compounds Y, Z and AA and write the chemical equations respectively.
