Question
Chapter 8, Problem 72P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
- The reason for the stability of given carbocation has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Features that decrease the predicted stability:
- 1. An atom with an incomplete octet.
- 2. A negative charge that is not on the most electronegative atom.
- 3. A positive charge on that is on an electronegative atom.
- 4. Charge separation.

For the trans isomer of cinnamic acid:
o Draw the structure of the trans isomer of cinnamic acid and the structure of the
intermediate bromonium ion. Note that the bromonium ion can exist as two enantiomeric
forms. You should draw both of these isomeric forms.
o Draw the structures of the two dibrominated products which can form when a bromide
ion adds to the bromonium ion intermediate. These must be drawn to show the correct
stereochemistry. Assign the chiral carbons as R or S.
Draw the organic product of the following reaction.
CH3
m-CICgH,CO;H
• Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists.
• If the reaction produces a racemic mixture, just draw one stereoisomer.
• If more than one product is possible, only draw the major product.

What about the second step in the electrophilic addition of HCl to an alkene-the reaction of chloride ion with the carbocation intermediate? Is this step exergonic or endergonic? Does the transition state for this second step resemble the reactant (carbocation) or the product (alkyl chloride)? Make a rough diagram of what the transition state may look like?
