Construct an efficient three-step synthesis of 1,2-epoxycyclopentane from bromocyclopentane by dragging the appropriate formulas into the bins. Note that each bin will hold only one item, and not all of the given reagents or structures will be used.
Aromatic heterocycles can undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution like benzene. Groups attached to the heterocycle can therefore have similar directing effects as they can on benzene. Keeping this in mind, consider the following reaction, where E+ is a general electrophile: a) Draw all relevant resonance structures for the intermediate of each product b) Based on your answers to part a), which product do you expect to be the major product and why? (2 points)c) If you performed this reaction in the laboratory, which instrumental technique (ex: 1H NMR, IR, Mass Spectrometry) would be best to determine which product you obtained of the three and why?
Why we need step 3 before step 4? a. Because the nitro group increases the electrophilicity at the ortho positions which is where the bromine is added. b. Because the amine group is a strong ortho, para director which is what controls the regiochemical outcome of this bromination. c. Step 4 is unessesary. The symmetry of compound 3 allows for the bromination to be regioselective and give compound 5. 5. There will be a mixture of products because there is no selectivity for a major product.
Draw the product for the substitution reactions below. Then, draw the proper FULL electron-pushing mechanism for the reaction, including intermediates with lone pairs and formal charges, and all electron pushing arrows (SN1 vs SN2). Label the electrophile and nucleophile in each step.
Help ASAP Illustrate the resonance effect of the methoxy group -OCH3, on the structure of the benzene ring. Do this by writing all the possible resonance forms for methoxybenzene, including the hybrid. Based on your structures, explain how the presence of the -OCH3 group affects: (i) the reactivity of the benzene ring towards electrophilic attack; (ii) the orientation or point of attack of an incoming electrophilic reagent on the benzene ring.
The use of curved arrows is a powerful tool that illustrates even complex reactions. a.Add curved arrows to show how carbocation A is converted to carbocation B. Label each new σ bond formed. Similar reactions have been used in elegant syntheses of steroids. b.Draw the product by following the curved arrows. This reaction is an example of a [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement, as we will learn in Chapter 25.
