The electrophilic addition of HBr to 3-cyclohexylbut-1-ene gives a mixture of two constitutional isomers. These two isomers can also be produced from3-cylcohexybut-2-ene, but one of which requires different reaction conditions; the electrophilic addition of HBr to 3-cylcohexybut-2-ene produces one of theseisomers while the electrophilic addition of HBr to 3-cylcohexybut-2-ene, in the presence of peroxides, produces the other one.Draw the structure for the isomer product that can result from the reactants 3-cyclohexylbut-1-ene and 3-cylcohexybut-2-ene using different reactionconditions.Part 1 of 2Click and drag to start drawing astructure.C8DY0008:>

Identify two alkenes that react with HBr to form 1-bromo-1-methylcyclohexane without undergoing a carbocation rearrangement.
Which of these alkyl chlorides undergoes dehydrohalogenation in the presence of a strong base to give pent-2-ene (shown below) as the only alkene product? O l-chloro-2-methylbutane O 2-chloropentane O 3-chloropentane O 1-chloropentane O l-chloro-3-methylbutane
One compound that contributes to the “seashore smell” at beaches in Hawai‘i is dictyopterene D', a component of a brown edible seaweed called limu lipoa. Hydrogenation of dictyopterene D' with excess H2 in the presence of a Pd catalyst forms butylcycloheptane. Ozonolysis with O3 followed by (CH3)2S forms CH2(CHO)2, HCOCH2CH(CHO)2, and CH3CH2CHO. What are possible structures of dictyopterene D'?
Each of the following alcohols has been subjected to acid-catalyzed dehydration and yields a mixture of two isomeric alkenes. Identify the two alkenes in each case, and predict which one is the major product.
Nonconjugated , -unsaturated ketones, such as 3-cyclohexenone, are in an acid-catalyzed equilibrium with their conjugated , -unsaturated isomers. Propose a mechanism for this isomerization.
Bicyclo-2,5-heptadiene can be prepared in two steps from cyclopentadiene and vinyl chloride. Provide a mechanism for each step.
A problem often encountered in the oxidation of primary alcohols to acids is that esters are sometimes produced as by-products. For example, oxidation of ethanol yields acetic acid and ethyl acetate: Propose a mechanism to account for the formation of ethyl acetate. Take into account the reversible reaction between aldehydes and alcohols:
Alcohols are important for organic synthesis, especially in situations involving alkenes. The alcohol might be the desired product, or the OH group might be transformed into another functional group via halogenation, oxidation, or perhaps conversion to a sulfonic ester derivative. Formation of an alcohol from an alkene is particularly powerful because conditions can be chosen to produce either the Markovnikov or non-Markovnikov product from an unsymmetrical alkene. Using your reaction roadmap as a guide, show how to convert 4-methyl-1-pentene into 5-methylhexanenitrile. You must use 4-methyl-1-pentene and sodium cyanide as the source of all carbon atoms in the target molecule. Show all reagents needed and all molecules synthesized along the way.
Cyclohexene can be converted to 1-cyclopentenecarbaldehyde by the following series of reactions. Propose a structural formula for each intermediate compound.
If phenoxide ion is allowed to react with 1-bromopentane, pentyl phenyl ether is obtained. However, if cyclohexane is used as the alkyl halide, the major products are phenol and cyclohexene. Explain how these products were formed.
Reaction of HBr with 3-methylcyclohexene yields a mixture of four products: cis-and trans-1-bromo-3-methylcyclohexane and cis-and trans-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane. The analogous reaction of HBr with 3-bromocyclohexene yields trans-1, 2-dibromocyclohexane as the soleproduct. Draw structures of the possible intermediates, and then explain why only a single product is formed in this reaction.
Because bromocyclohexane is a secondary alkyl halide, both cyclohexanol and cyclohexene are formed when the alkyl halide reacts with hydroxide ion. Suggest a method to synthesize cyclohexanol from bromocyclohexane that forms little or no cyclohexene.
