+ 3 H₂
Typically, hydrogenation of a cyclo-alkane, like MCH, occurs in 3 or more stages, where one
bond is dehydrogenated per stage, eventually resulting in the dehydrogenation of 3 bonds.
Strong adsorption of MCH is likely to occur, but the adsorption of hydrogen (either as a
molecule on a single site OR as an atom on a single site) is unclear. Therefore, in this
question, two types of reaction mechanisms are to be considered, as discussed below:
(a) You are to first propose a reaction mechanism which includes adsorption, surface reaction,
and desorption. For each of the following cases, please write down a full set of elementary
reaction mechanisms.

Why is less energy required to break a C-H bond to form a more highly substituted radical? Can somebody summarize the words on this page to make it more understandable?

• All hydrogen atoms are implied.
• You do not have to consider stereochemistry.

- Free radical halogenation is used to replace one or more hydrogens on an alkane with one or more halogens (either chlorine or bromine). It is a substitution reaction. A student performs a free radical bromination on 3-methyl-pentane (5.88 g) to create the desired product of 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane. The product mix, which hopefully contains almost all 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane, is cleaned up by passing it through a gas chromoatograph, which separates out the 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane from any undesired products made during the reaction (undesired products are created frequently in free radical halogenation). The initial product mix weighed 9.45 g; the purified 3-bromo-3-methyl-pentane weighed 7.21 g.

ChemDoodle Sn [Farrow_forwardUsing Zaitsev's rule, choose the most stable alkene among the following. Draw out the structures of each of the options then select the correct answer. Recall that Zaitsev's Rule is about alkene stability. The trend for this is similar to the trend for carbocation stability. Either more or fewer groups on the alkene (and the carbocation) make it more stable. This question is wanting you to remember if it's more or fewer. A) 1,2-dimethylcyclohexene B) 1,6-dimethylcyclohexene C) cis-3,4-dimethylcyclohexene D) They are all of equal stability according to Zaitsev's rule. Provide the major dehydration product of the following reaction. Recall which of the four substitution and elimination reactions a dehydration is. Before you do your S# or EF mechanism, remember what heteroatoms do in the presence of an acid (aka-the-OH is a bad leaving group, but protonating it might turn it into a good one).
