Textbook Question
Chapter 8.13, Problem 8.30P
- a. Propose a mechanism for the conversion of cis-hex-3-ene to the
epoxide (3,4-epoxyhexane) and the ring-opening reaction to give the glycol, hexane 3,4-diol . In your mechanism, pay particular attention to the stereochemistry of the intermediates and products. - b. Repeat part (a) for trans-hex-3-ene. Compare the products obtained from cis- and trans-hex-3-ene. Is this reaction sequence stereospecific?

When two solutions, one of 0.1 M KCl (I) and the other of 0.1 M MCl (II), are brought into contact by a membrane. The cation M cannot cross the membrane. At equilibrium, x moles of K+ will have passed from solution (I) to (II). To maintain the neutrality of the two solutions, x moles of Cl- will also have to pass from I to II. Explain this equality: (0.1 - x)/x = (0.1 + x)/(0.1 - x)
