Question

Please do 2a and 2b and write out the reaction mechanism, thank you!

2. Reaction Mechanism a. The Report Form asks you to write the mechanism for the synthesis reaction on the back of the form. Write the complete mechanism for the reaction. Be sure to use expanded structural formulas for all chemical species. Include all bonds, non-bonding electrons, formal charges, and electron-flow arrows. DO NOT use bond-line formulas, but rather explicitly show atomic symbols. For this mechanism, show the individual resonance contributors for the arenium ion intermediate. b. As stated in the Lab Manual for this experiment, a by-product is possibly produced in this reaction if the temperature is not kept low. Write the complete mechanism for the reaction to produce the di-nitrated product. Draw each step of the mechanism on a separate line beginning on the left margin, and then explaining on the right how the reaction step occurs. (The lecture textbook, Klein 3rd. Ed. also uses this mechanistic narrative for each step.) Be sure to use expanded structural formulas for all chemical species. Include all bonds, non-bonding electrons, formal charges, and electron-flow arrows. DO NOT use bond-line formulas, but rather explicitly show atomic symbols. For this mechanism. show the resonance hybrid for the arenium ion intermediate.
