Question
Please help with all these questions in detail. This is related to the organic chemistry lab, Bromination of an Alkene.
Post-lab Questions: 1. Explain/show how conjugation of a double bond with a carbonyl affects the vibrational frequency of the carbonyl. How was this demonstrated in our specific system? The melting point of the material from part A was lower than the expected 204 C for the anti- addition product but significantly higher than 95 C, the melting point of the syn-addition product. How can you justify the claim that the major product of the reaction resulted from the anti-addition of elemental bromine across a double bond? 2. 3. The anti-addition pathway gives a pair of enantiomers. Is it possible to distinguish these molecules using gas chromatography? What about TLC?

    Stereochemistry of bromine addition 1) To investigate the mechanism for the addition of bromine to an alkene, we will use the melting point of our brominated products. The three possible outcomes for this lab are to obtain 1)only the syn enantiomers, 2)only the anti enantiomers, or 3)a mixture of diastereomers. Match these possible outcomes to the three possible mechanisms described in the lab manual, bromonium ion, concerted Br2 activation, and carbonation 2) In this experiment we don't crystallize the final...

Please draw out full mechanism with arrow pushing please for both! trans-cinnamic acid Bromination of trans-cinnamic acid can result in the formation of two different pairs of enantiomers (see Figure 4). Fortunately, the pairs of enantiomers have very different melting points. Thus, we can determine the result of this reaction by examining the melting...
