(a)
Interpretation:
The type of stereoisomers formed by the given reaction has to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Effect of delocalized electrons on the product of the reaction:
The presence of delocalizes electrons while electrophilic addition or substitution the cation intermediate formed is shifted to stable carbocation form at higher rate, and that leads to the product.
Rule: The stabilities of carbocation are,

- 2) Using one of the MO diagrams your developed in question 1, briefly explain the origins of the resonance/stabilization energy found in conjugated alkenes.arrow_forwardYour Name: 1. Consider the Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction below. D + heat D H D = deuterium = 2H Draw the major regioisomer (or in other words, constitutional isomer) expected to form. Draw appropriate resonance structures and explain why only one constitutional isomer is expected to form. Discuss if this can be drawn with both groups on the dieneophile being endo or one has to be endo and the other has to be exo.arrow_forwardDraw the structure resulting from a reaction of: 1. diborane (B₂H6), followed by 2. alkaline hydrogen peroxide (NaOH / H₂O2) with the following alkene. . Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. . If a group is achiral, do not use wedged or hashed bonds on it. • If the reaction produces a racemic mixture, just draw one stereoisomer.arrow_forward

- A difficult problem in the synthesis of PGF2α is the introduction of the OH group at C15 in the desired configuration. a. Label this stereogenic center as R or S. b. A well known synthesis of PGF2α involves reaction of A with Zn(BH4)2, a metal hydride reagent similar in reactivity to NaBH4, to form two isomeric products, B and C. Draw their structures and indicate their stereochemical relationship. c. Suggest a reagent to convert A to the single stereoisomer X.arrow_forward1-Explain why the reactivity is more for primary alkyl halide in SN2 and tertiary alkylhalide in SN1 reaction. 2- differentiate between erythro and threo isomers.
