Elimination reaction

Step by step solution

01

Elimination reaction

It is an organic chemical reaction in which any two substituents are removed from the molecule in either a single step or a two-step process.

02

Classification of reaction

The given reaction is represented as follows:

This reaction is eliminated since a water molecule is eliminated from cyclohexanol.

Which reaction is likely to be more exergonic, one with Keq=1000 or one with Keq= 0.001?

Draw all of the different monochlorinated products one would obtain by the radical chlorination of these compounds. (Do not consider the stereochemistry of the products in your answer.)

Despite the limitations of radical chlorination of alkanes, the reaction is still useful for synthesizing certain halogenated compounds. For which of the following compounds does radical chlorination give a single monochloro product?

2-Chloro-2-methylpropane reacts with water in three steps to yield 2-methyl-2-propanol. The first step is slower than the second, which in turn is much slower than the third. The reaction takes place slowly at room temperature, and the equilibrium constant is approximately 1.

  1. Give approximate values forฮ”Gยฑ and ฮ”Gothat are consistent with the above information.
  2. Draw an energy diagram for the reaction, labeling all points of interest and making sure that the relative energy levels on the diagram are consistent with the information given.

Radical chlorination of pentane is a poor way to prepare 1-chloropentane, but radical chlorination of neopentane,CH34C, is a good way to prepare neopentyl chloride,CH33CCH2Cl. Explain.
