- The reaction shown here is a halosulfonation, which is a useful variation of the sulfonation reaction. Draw the complete mechanism for this reaction.arrow_forward(SYN) Show how to carry out this transformation using any reagents necessaryarrow_forwardThe first step should be proton transfer. As I included in my work and the second step I think should be nucleophilic attack but I don't know how to continue on from there. Please but problem as a list of reactionsarrow_forward
- (SYN) In the reaction shown here, the aromatic ring has just one chemically distinct, aromatic H, so a single electrophilic aromatic substitution will lead to just a single product. With this in mind, supply the missing reagentsneeded to carry out the transformation.arrow_forwardBonus Question: If you deemed the previous reaction to be unsuccessfull, propose a reaction or synthesis that would successfully produce the desired ether product (shown again to the side). You may use any reaction you know of.arrow_forwardPlease predict the product of the following reaction, and draw the complete, detailed mechanism.arrow_forward
- (SYN) Show how you would carry out this synthesis.arrow_forwardThe reaction shown here is an example of the Favorskii reaction, which involves an R¯ leaving group in a nucleophilic addition-elimination reaction. (a) Draw the complete, detailed mechanism for this reaction and explain why R can act as a leaving NaOH H2O group. (b) Suggest how you can synthesize an ester from cyclopropanone using only this reaction.arrow_forwardBy following the curved red arrows, draw the product(s) of each of the following reaction steps. Also indicate which species is the electrophile and which is the nucleophile.arrow_forward
- Predict the major products of the following reactions. Draw the complete, detailed mechanism that leads to the formation of each of those products.arrow_forwardOrganic Chemistry PROBLEM: Each of the following substrates has two acidic protons. Select the proton that ismost likely to be removed 1) upon addition of one equivalent of butyllithium and 2) uponaddition of two equivalents of butyllithium.arrow_forwarddraw the curved electron pushing arrows for the following reaction or mechanisitic step. be sure to account for all bond making or breaking steps.
