Question

For any corrections, disregard the parts of your molecule represented by R-groups.

o Below the incorrect mechanism write a discussion of the incorrect mechanism identifying all of the mistakes in the mechanism. Keep in mind that there will be more than one mistake in the given mechanism and that the product given is not necessarily the correct product of the reaction of your molecule with the given reagent.

o For each mistake, give a detailed, scientific explanation of why it is incorrect.

Draw a correct mechanism to react your molecule with the given reagent. Again, disregard any parts of the molecule represented by R-groups and focus on the given portion of the molecule. Be sure the correct mechanism arrives at the correct product of the reaction.

Incorrect Mechanism (The mechanism is for the formation of the major product. Please ignore the minor product). + NaOH - op + Na+ + HO - c OH

Answer 1

Solution=

solution it carbocation a R + Na on y R Terom + Nach SN'T sol reaction because c-cl bond is strong and al is not good leaving group. In the incorrect mechanism En take Htion, so Carbation is formed, but it korme . Carbanion. In the 2nd step, to attack the carbonium ion al group is leaving, which is not occur in a reaction. It ci is leaving as ee carbonium ion is bormed in the Carbon atom where el is present, but in the given mechanism Carbanion is ronmed. A Again the product sormed as secondary alcohol, but it the secondary alcohol is formed then reaction goes through s pathway. In that case promary Carbonium is kormed which is unstable. But there will be chan possibility o ł hydride transter which depends on stability ok the carbonium ion 96 the R group is electron withdrowing then it is not possible. and agonn c-cl is not ionised.
