(a)
Interpretation:
The Kekule structures of anthracene and phenanthrene are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The structure of benzene consists of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagon with alternate single and double bonds between them. Each carbon atom of a hexagon has a hydrogen atom attached to it. Such structure is known as Kekule structure. The first structure for benzene was proposed by Kekule, and it is named as Kekule structure.
(b)
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the two given addition reactions is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Organic compounds are synthesized through organic reactions. The different types of reactions in
(c)
Interpretation:
An explanation corresponding to the fact that the addition of bromine to phenanthrene gives a mixture of syn and anti stereochemistry is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Organic compounds are synthesized through organic reactions. The different types of reactions in organic chemistry are elimination reaction, substitution reaction, addition reactions and many more. Addition reactions take place when two or more reactants combine to form a single product.
(d)
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the given dehydrohalogenation reaction is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Organic compounds are synthesized through organic reactions. The different types of reactions in organic chemistry are elimination reaction, substitution reaction, addition reactions and many more. Addition reactions take place when two or more reactants combine to form a single product.
