Question
Chapter 9.3, Problem 6E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: By using curved arrow to symbolize the flow of electron, the mechanism for the propagation steps that converts isopropyl benzene into the corresponding monobromide is to be shown and two possible termination steps for the process are to be described.
Concept introduction: Free radicals are uncharged molecules having an unpaired valence electron.These are typically highly reactive and short-lived molecules.

One possible way of determining the identity of an alkene, is to let itundergo an oxidative cleavage reaction in the presence of hot basicpotassium permanganate. You are given two containers said to containdifferent alkenes. Container A is marked as cis / trans‐2‐butene andcontainer B as 2‐methyl‐1‐butene. Explain by referring to the formation ofproducts, how you would verify the identity of the alkenes.
How are cyclopropanes synthesized from alkenes using carbene reactants and how is the mechanism understood to predict the products. Also, what are the various methods for generating carbenes (including the preparation of Simmons-Smith reagents)
Substitutions on aromatic rings are generally carried out by electrophilic substitution, but for the synthesis of phenolic compounds and alkoxy benzene it is carried out by nucleophilic substitution, explain why this is so .

When the kinetics of the reaction are measured, if the rate of the reaction is found to be dependent only upon the concentration of the alkyl halide the reaction is first order. The substitution reaction is thus termed SN1, and the elimination reaction is termed E1. These reactions are unimolecular and occur in two steps. The first step is rate-limiting and involves the loss of the leaving group to form a carbocation. In the second, fast, step the nucleophile adds to the carbocation in the SN1 reaction or elimination occurs to give an alkene in the E1 reaction. Because the carbocation is planar, the nucleophile can add to either face and therefore racemization is usually observed although solvent effects can influence this somewhat. E1 elimination follows Zaitsev’s rule and typically yields the most substituted alkene as the major product. Conditions which favor the SN1/E1 pathway include the use of a weak…arrow_forward
