1) Draw a complete scheme and mechanism for the dehydration of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene. Propose a scheme and conditions for the preparation of cyclohexanol from cyclohexene. How would you track the progress of your reactions and confirm product identification?
2) Create a chart comparing E1, E2, SN1 and SN2 reactions. Be detailed and cover: structure of RX, reactivity of nucleophile, concentration of nucleophile, solvent and stereochemistry.
3) Mixing cyclohexanol with phosphoric acid is an exothermic process, whereas the production of cyclohexene is endothermic. Referring to the two chemical reactions in the lab handout, construct an energy diagram showing the course of this reaction. Label the diagram with the starting alcohol, the oxonium ion (the protonated alcohol), the carbocation and the product.

Draw the mechanism and use words to explain the following reactions: The dehydration reaction of 2,2-dimethyl-1-cyclohexanol produces as the major product 1,2-dimethyl-1-cyclohexene
8) Draw a mechanism with all the proper arrows for the reaction from this experiment. Introduction Alkyl halides can be prepared from alcohols by reactions with hydrogen halides (HCI, HBr, or HI) via nucleophilic substitution. In this type of reaction, the nucleophile displaces a leaving group from a carbon atom of an organic substrate (here the alcohol once protonated). Both electrons of the new bond to the carbon are provided by the nucleophile while the leaving group departs with both...
Please help with the question that I have circled in red. This is from a lab I did and I have included the entire handout in case it helps you to answer the question. 2015 Chem 263 2-Credit Org Lab 6T: Dehydration of Cyclohexanol to Cyclohexene Lab 6T w lecture you recently learned that alkenes undergo acid-catalyzed addition of H20 (hydration of the alkene) to yield alcohols. This lab with illustrate the same chemistry in reverse; the microscopic reverse of...

Experiment Questions What is an epoxide and how is it useful with respect to synthesis design? • What are typical reagents used for epoxidation? • What is the mechanism for epoxidation? Must stereospecificity be considered? Experiment Techniques • Use of sodium bisulfite wash to remove excess peroxy acid from reaction mixture. Introduction By now you are well aware that the product of previous experiment (reaction of cyclohexanol and acid) is an alkene. You should also be storing key reactions of...
