4. What multistep synth t multistep synthesis could you have used to synthesize benzil from trans-stilbene,...
5. If we wanted to synthesize hydrobenzoin from trans-stilbene, would there be a difference in the products depending on these two methods? What would the products be? Show and label stereochemistry. OsO4 H₂O₂ mCPBA H+, H20
From the lab hand-out: “In this experiment, you will synthesize stilbene dibromide by reacting the alkene, trans-stilbene, with Br2 formed in situ from pyridinium tribromide (Figure 1). This reaction takes place and produces two stereocenters, therefore up to three products can be formed; S,S and R,R enantiomers and/or racemic mixture of R,S and S,R which are meso compounds (by definition a meso compound is a molecule with multiple stereocenters that is superimposable on its mirror image)…” After you complete your...
6) Multistep synthesis from cyclohexane Using cyclohexane as your starting material, show how you would synthesize cach of the following compounds. Once you have shown how to synthesize a compound, you may use it as the starting material in any later parts of this problem.) a) bromocyclohexane (b) cyclohexene e) ethoxycyclohexane (d) 3-bromocyclohex-l-ene (e) cyclohexa-1,3-diene (1) cyclohexanol
Question 1 (12 marks) Design a synthesis which uses the starting material indicated to synthesize the product in the scheme below. You may use any reactions we have learned in 2220 so far, and any reactions from 2210. There is no maximum or minimum numbers of steps, though you should strive for 'conciseness' in your synthetic route. You should note the relative stereochemistry of any substituents and take that into account when designing your synthesis. For each reaction, be sure...
Question 2 (12 marks) Design a synthesis which uses the starting material indicated to synthesize the product in the scheme below. You may use any reactions we have learned in 2220 so far, and any reactions from 2210. There is no maximum or minimum numbers of steps, though you should strive for 'conciseness' in your synthetic route. You should note the relative stereochemistry of any substituents and take that into account when designing your synthesis. For each reaction, be sure...
Problem 3 Propose a synthesis of the following molecule from the given starting material. You may use any reactions we have learned in this course so far, and any reagents containing the carbon atoms you need. If you make a mixture in any of the steps, place a box around the compound you would separate from the mixture, and carry on with your synthesis assuming you can isolate the desired regioisomer. NH2
What alcohol and carboxylic acid could be used to synthesize the following. Include structural formulas and IUPAC names 1. Ethyl valerate from Apple scent 2. Allyl caproate from pineapple scent 3. Methyl anthranilate from grape scent 4. Methyl cinnamate from strawberry scent
Question 3. About the European Debt Crisis. Do you think that it is over? What have we learned so far from it? Could something like this happen again and will countries be better prepared for it?
OH 4. A Chem 241 student was given an experiment to synthesize compound 1 from ethyl acetoacetate. The student prepared 1 mole equivalent of methylmagnesium iodide, co Et which was then slowly added to a solution of ethyl acetoacetate in ether. Everything went well; indeed, even without the application of heat, the reaction mixture bubbled merrily. Working carefully with supervision and advice from the lab instructor the student worked- up the reaction and isolated an excellent yield of the starting...
Using proton NMR, how could you experimentally determine that you have the trans isomer rather than the cis one? (Hint: See Technique 25, p. 854.) Provide the starting materials needed to prepare the following compounds: 3. 4. (a) CH3CH2CH-C-C-H CH CH3 Ph (c) C- CH-C-Ph CHj (d) CH3O CH-CH OCH3 -CH-CH (e) 02N CH- CH-C NO2 5. Prepare the following compounds starting from benzaldehyde and the appropriate ketone. Provide reactions for preparing the ketones starting from aromatic hydro- carbon compounds...
