Show how you would accomplish the following transformations.
1_methylcycloheptanol---->2_methylcycloheptanol
(a) When (Z)-3-methylhex-3-ene undergoes hydroboration–oxidation, two isomeric products are formed. Give their structures, and label each asymmetric carbon atom as (R) or (S). What is the relationship between these isomers? (b) Repeat part (a) for (E)-3-methylhex-3-ene. What is the relationship between the products formed from (Z)-3-methylhex-3-ene and those formed from (E)-3-methylhex-3-ene?
Show how you would accomplish the following synthetic conversions.
(a) but_1_ene-->butan_1_ol
(b) but_1_ene--->butan_2_ol
(c) 2_bromo_2,4_dimethylpentane-->2,4_dimethylpentan_3_ol
Show how you would accomplish the following synthetic conversions.
(a)1-iodo-2-methylcyclopentaneS1-methylcyclopentanol
(b)3-methylpent-1-eneS3-methylpentan-2-ol
Predict the major products of the following reactions, and propose mechanisms to sup-port your predictions.
1-phenylpropene + HBr + di-tert-butyl peroxide
When 1 mole of buta-1,3-diene reacts with 1 mole of HBr, both 3-bromobut-1-ene and 1-bromobut-2-ene are formed. Propose a mechanism to account for this mixture of products.
Explain why the + charge of the carbocation always appears at the carbon of the (former) double bond that has NOT bonded to the electrophile.
What are racemic mixtures? Discuss their resolution involving the formation of diastereomers.
