Students have asked these similar questions
The rate of elimination of cis-1-bromo-4(1,1-dimethyl)cyclohexane is proportional to the concentration of both substrate and base, but that of the trans isomer is proportional only to the concentration of the substrate.
a) draw the structures of cis and trans 1-bromo-4(1,1,-dimethyl)cyclohexane
b) explain the difference in kinetics between the elimination reaction of cis and trans isomers.
Does the following SNAr reaction occur accordingto an addition-elimination or an elimination-addition mechanism? Motivate.
3-Chloro-1-butene reacts with sodium ethoxide in ethanol to produce 3-ethoxy-1- butene. The reaction is second order, first order in 3-chloro-1-butene, and first order in sodium ethoxide. In the absence of sodium ethoxide, 3-chloro-1-butene reacts with ethanol to produce both 3-ethoxy-1-butene and 1-ethoxy-2-butene. Explain these results.
