Chapter 8, Problem 42P
The reaction of bromine with cyclohexene involves anti addition, which generates, initially, the diaxial conformation of the addition product that then undergoes a ring flip to the diequatorial conformation of trans-1,2-dibromocyclohexane. However, when the unsaturated bicyclic compound I is the

Choose all that apply. O As a consequence of the cylic bromonium ion and anti-addition, a maximum two stereoisomers are formed even though the dihalide product may have two chiral carbons. O Instead of a carbocation intermediate, bromination forms a cyclic bromonium intermediate. O A symmetric cis alkene will form only stereoisomer that is a meso compound O The mechanism of the bromination of alkenes is absolutely the same as the general mechanism of electrophilic addition of alkenes. O The bromide ion can only add to the side opposite the C-Br bonds of the bromonium ion because of steric hindrance.arrow_forward
- Electrophilic addition to an alkene proceeds via Markovnikov regiochemistry due to the formation of the more stable carbocation intermediate. In the case of conjugated dienes, that is dienes that are separated by one sigma bond, the carbocation that is formed is stabilized additionally by resonance. Addition of the nucleophile to the carbocation intermediate can therefore give two types of products: direct addition to the double bond, also called 1,2-addition, and conjugate addition to the resonance stabilized carbocation, also called 1,4-addition.Allylic carbocation stability is affected by both the nature of the carbocation (primary allylic, secondary allylic, or tertiary allylic) and by the degree of substitution of the double bond. The latter is typically the dominant effect and so a primary allylic carbocation with a trisubstituted double bond is more stable than a tertiary allylic carbocation with a monosubstituted double bond.Electrophilic addition to a conjugated diene is…arrow_forwardCalculate the total strain energy in each of the two chair conformations of cis-1-tert-butyl-4-chlorocyclohexane.
