The pi electrons of an alkene can act as a base. Explain why the cis-dibenzoylethylene produced can be isomerized back into trans-dibenzoylethylene by heating an ethanol solution of cis-dibenzoylethylene with a few drops of H2SO4.
When the pi bond is protonated, there is free rotation around the remaining single sigma bond allowing the more stable trans isomer to form when deprotonation occurs reforming the pi bond between the central carbon atoms.

Can someone explain why the answer is not
cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol and ethanol?
Question 7 What are the products of the reaction shown below? O CH heat O IH OA. cyclohexanone and ethanol O B. cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol and ethanol O C. trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol and ethanol O D. cyclohexanone and ethanal 0 E. cis-1,2-cyclohexanediol and ethanal
5. Explain why PH3 can act both as a Lewis base and acid (PH3 + FPH3F) while NH3 can only act as a Lewis base only
Arsenic trichloride can act both as a Lewis acid and as a Lewis base. Explain why this is so and write a balanced equation for each using BF3 and Cl− as reaction partners. 1,Write the balanced equation with AsCl3 acting as Lewis base. 2,Write the balanced equation with AsCl3 acting as Lewis acid.
Organic Worksheet How can you explain that trams-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane yields the non-Zaitsev elimination product 3-methylcylcohexene on treatment with base? 1-chloro-1,2-diphenylethane can undergo E2 elimination to give either cis or trans- 1,2,diphenylethylene. Draw Newman projections of the reactive conformations leading to both possible products, and suggest a reason why the trans alkene is the major product.
Please explain why is it Cis or trans. How can we differentiate
the isomers? Why one shift futhur downfield than the other?
Problem 6 (1 pt Use the IHNMR and 13C NMR spectra to determine the structure of a compound whose chemical formula is C2H2C12 and assign the peaks in each spectrum. Note: In both iHNMR and 13 spectra, ignore the TMS peak at 0 ppm. IH NMR: doublet at 5.74 ppm (1) and a doublet at 4.44 ppm (l)....
for question 19 can you explain why you picked the reagents you
did?
Sterist CH; HC CHH; CCH; - CC CH trans vinylic anion more stable anion able cis vinylic a less stab electron repulsion cis radical anion less stable Hical anion is more stable than the cis radical anion, because the nonbonded electrons are farther apart i The trans vinylic anion is more stable than the cis vinylic anion, because the relatively bulky alkyl group in the trans isomer...

Which statements listed below can explain why a chemical reaction does not take place? concentration of reactants is too low the temperature is too low not enough effective collisions are occurring some of these answers all of these answers For a chemical reaction the rate of the forward reaction is at a maximum when when the concentration of the reactants and products is the same a state of equilibrium is reached the reaction begins the concentration of products is greater...
Hi,
can anyone please help me with this? i have no clue how to define
if a reaction is Oxidation reduction or not. Thanks a lot
OXIDATION-REDUCTION Introduction Chemists refer to reactions which involve a transfer of electrons from one reactant to another as oxidation reduction reactions of just "redox" reactions. Oxidation is defined as a loss of electron and reduction as a gain of electron by a substance during a chemical reaction. The loss of electrons by one substance...
