(a)
Interpretation:
The synthesis for the given reaction by providing the structure of the major product is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The general steps for the formation of halohydrin are stated below:
- The first step is the attack of halide ion to form a halonium ion.
- The second step is the attack of water to opens the halonium ion.
- The last step is deprotonation to give the halohydrin product.
(b)
Interpretation:
The synthesis for the given reaction by providing the structure of the major product is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Oxymercuration-demercuration is one of the methods used to convert
Osmium tetroxide also called osmic acid reacts with alkenes to form cyclic osmate ester. Hydrogen peroxide is used as an oxidizing agent to hydrolyze the osmate ester. The attack of oxygen from osmic acid to the double bond of alkene is from the same side. Thus, they have syn stereochemistry.
(c)
Interpretation:
The synthesis for the given reaction by providing the structure of the major product is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Ozonolysis is the oxidative cleavage of the double bond, where
(d)
Interpretation:
The synthesis for the given reaction by providing the structure of the major product is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Hydroboration reaction is a two step reaction, which involves conversion of alkene into alcohol. This type of reaction follows anti-markovinokov’s rule.
Anti markovinokov’s rule states that the positive part of acid attached to that carbon atom in

- Predict the major products of the following organic reaction: NC Δ ? Some important Notes: • Draw the major product, or products, of the reaction in the drawing area below. • If there aren't any products, because no reaction will take place, check the box below the drawing area instead. • Be sure to draw bonds carefully to show important geometric relationships between substituents. Note: if your answer contains a complicated ring structure, you must use one of the molecular fragment stamps (available in the menu at right) to enter the ring structure. You can add any substituents using the pencil tool in the usual way. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. Х аarrow_forwardPredict the major products of this organic reaction.

- Consider the following reactants: Br Would elimination take place at a significant rate between these reactants? Note for advanced students: by significant, we mean that the rate of elimination would be greater than the rate of competing substitution reactions. yes O no If you said elimination would take place, draw the major products in the upper drawing area. If you said elimination would take place, also draw the complete mechanism for one of the major products in the lower drawing area. If there is more than one major product, you may draw the mechanism that leads to any of them. Major Products:arrow_forwardDraw one product of an elimination reaction between the molecules below.
