Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The stereoisomer of alkene A used in the given reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

In presence of peroxide, alkene is oxidized to epoxide. This is known as epoxidation. In presence of OsO4 or KMnO4, alkene is converted into a glycol. Addition of hydroxyl group takes place always in syn manner.

5) Compound A reacted with Mg in ether to give B. Compound B is with Ethyl bromide to give Ethyl cyclohexane. What are the structures of A and B?
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?
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.
