Chapter 8, Problem 29CTQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Whether a nucleophile is attracted to positive or negative charge should be determined.

Concept introduction: Organic reactions generally involve reaction between covalent molecules made of carbon and hydrogen or reaction between organic compounds.

Generally species that are involved in a reaction are:

1. Substrate

2. Reagent

3. Solvent

All these species on the basis of charge density on them can be categorized as nucleophiles and electrophiles.

3. Drawing Reaction Mechanism Arrows For the reactions that have TWO starting materials, indicate and label which species is the nucleophile and which is the electrophile. (HINT: Look at the reactants and look at the products to see where bonds form and where bonds break! Using your pK, table and bond polarity predictions will help!) Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons for Bond Forming and Bond Breaking in each of the reaction steps Finally, identify and label what type of elementary step is represented for each mechanism -н Name of Elementary Step н-СI: а. Н -H Name of Elementary Step: нс-о-н b. О-н CHз н Н Name of Elementary Step Н-Сі: с O-H CH3 CНз
Please review your answers. You say the reaction on the right is slower, then in the next question it is faster?
Add curved arrows to the reactants in this reaction. A double-barbed curved arrow is used to represent the movement of a pair of electrons. Draw curved arrows. Select Draw Rings More Erase | : 0 H-O: H OH
