All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freea. How could each of the following compounds be prepared from a hydrocarbon in a single step?
b. What other organic compound would be obtained from each synthesis?
In 1935, J. Bredt, a German chemist, proposed that a bicycloalkene could not have a double bond at a bridgehead carbon unless one of the rings contains at least eight carbons. This is known as Bredtโs rule. Explain why there cannot be a double bond at this position.

b. How many disubstituted products would each of the preceding compounds have? (Do not include stereoisomers.)
c. How many disubstituted products would each of the compounds have if stereoisomers are included?
a. Draw resonance contributors for the following species, showing all the lone pairs:
1.CH2N2 2. N2O 3. NO2-
b. For each species, indicate the most stable resonance contributor.
