Concept Introduction:
Enantiomers are stereoisomers of a compound which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. Enantiomers are optically active.
Electrophiles are electron deficient species which has positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles which accept electron pair.
Nucleophiles are electron rich species which has negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles which donate electron pair.
Free radical is an atom, molecule or ion that has unpaired electrons which makes it highly chemically reactive.
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon or a
Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called elimination reaction.
Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated molecules by the addition of molecules.
Carbocation is a molecule having a carbon atom bearing three bonds and a positive formal charge.
Carbocation are generally unstable because they do not have eight electrons to satisfy the octet rule.
The order of stability of carbocation is such that the tertiary carbocation is the most stable whereas the primary carbocation is the least stable, and secondary carbocation lies between primary and tertiary carbocations.
If primary carbocation is obtained in product, it rearranges itself to secondary or tertiary carbocation to form more stable product.
If secondary carbocation is obtained in product, it rearranges itself to tertiary carbocation to form more stable product.
The stability of carbocation:

- Only three stereoisomers are possible for 2,3-dibromo-2, 3-dichlorobutane. Draw them, indicating which pair are enantiomers (optical isomers). Why does the other isomer not have an enantiomer?arrow_forwardHow many different organic products are possible when pentan-2-ol is heated in the presence of acid? Ignore any stereoisomers (cis/trans isomers).arrow_forwardUsing reactions, mechanisms, potential energy diagrams, labels, complete sentences, and the associated concepts, explain the following reaction rate trend for the hydrochlorination of alkenes (the addition of HCI). You may assume: 1) the alkenes are all the same higher energy; and, 2) the chloroalkane products are all the same energy; and, 3) the chloroalkane products are lower in energy than the starting alkenes (AGºrx is negative for each reaction).arrow_forward
- The rate law for addition of Br2Br2 to an alkene is first order in Br2Br2 and first order in the alkene. Does this information suggest that the mechanism of addition of Br2Br2 to an alkene proceeds in the same manner as for addition of HBr? Explain.arrow_forwardThe major product formed when methylenecyclohexane is treated with NBS in dichloromethane is 1-(bromomethyl)cyclohexene. Account for the formation of this product.arrow_forwardTreatment of cyclohexene with C6H5CHI2 and Zn(Cu) forms two stereoisomers of molecular formula C13H16. Draw their structures and explain why two compounds are formed.arrow_forward
- Draw the structure(s) of all of the alkene isomers, C5H10, that contain a branched chain. Consider E/Z stereochemistry of alkenes.arrow_forwardDraw the structure of the expected organic product(s) formed in the following reactions including correct stereochemistry. If the product is racemic write both isomers or write racemic. Assume all reagents listed are present in excess unless otherwise noted. If no reaction occurs, state ''No Reaction".arrow_forwardDraw the isomer of compound cyclohexanecarbaldehyde and state the type of isomerism.arrow_forward
- Compound A (C3H,,Br) undergo dehydrohalogenation to produce major compound B. Compound C was formed when compound B undergo halogenation in room temperature. Compound B undergo halogenation in aqueous solution to form compound D. Compound B undergo hydrohalogenation in the presence of H,02 to form Compound E. Compound B undergo oxidation with hot acidified KMNO, to produce compound F and Compound G. Compound H was produced when Compound B react with cold KMN04. Compound B undergo ozonolysis to form Compound I and Compound J. Compound K was formed when compound B reacted with hydrogen in the presence of platinum. Compound A reacted with sodium hydroxide to form compound L. Compound M was produced when compound A reacted with ammonia in ethanol while compound N was formed when compound A reacted with sodium cyanide. Reaction X happened when compound K reacted with bromine in the presences of UV light. a) Identify the possible structural formulae for compound A to N.
