(6 pts) Provide the reagents required to complete the following transformations. 12. (5 pts) Dehydration of a tertiary alcohol in the presence of catalytic acid through the E1 pathway is thermodynamically unfavourable since sigma bonds are swapped for a pi bond. Explain how this process is made viable such that the alkene is able to be formed and isolated in high yield. Run the reaction at high temperature to increase the contribution of entropy to the overall free energy of the system ( G = T S) since the reaction is entropically favoured (1 mole of alcohol produces two moles of product; alkene and water). igh temperature also allows the more volatile alkene to be removed by distillation which will then force the equilibrium towards product to compensate. 6

(6 pts) Convert the following stereochemical representations as directed. Working out R/S configurations might help but are not required as part of the answer. 12. (7 pts) Typical S N 1 and S N 2 reactions are promoted by different types of solvents, namely polar protic and polar aprotic, respectively. Describe two solvents used for S N 1, two for S N 2, and then explain your choices. S N 1 reactions work best in polar protic solvents, which are capable of -bonding to leaving groups and then facilitating their departure. These polar solvents will also help stabilize the transition states and the carbocation formed during this process, and will ultimately serve as the nucleophile in such solvolysis reactions. In S N 2 reactions the -bonding ability of polar protic solvents is a disadvantage since that reduces nucleophile reactivity; polar aprotic solvents solubilize the reagents but do not attenuate their reactivities. Polar aprotic solvents will stabilize polar bimolecular transition states while not interfering as nucleophiles themselves. 6

(6 pts) Rank the following molecules in terms of how fast they will react with NaN 3 in DMF solution; 1 is the fastest reaction, 4 is the slowest reaction. iefly explain your choices. 3 C C 3 3 C The rate of the S N 2 reaction is slowed by local crowding, which makes it more difficult for the nucleophile (N 3 -) to approach the electrophilic carbon. The fastest reaction here will occur with substrate 1, which is a simple 1 system with little extra bulk at the β- and γ-carbon atoms. Substrate 2 has a bulk cyclohexyl group at the γ- carbon, and this bulk increases with the addition of further methyl groups in 3 and 4. 3

After reaction with water the measured [α] D of the product mixture is found to be 0. Give the products and explain the change in optical rotation in terms of the mechanism and the structure of the intermediate formed during this reaction. 2 + enantiomers The 3 alkyl bromide will produce a planar carbocation during this solvolysis reaction, which is then attacked from either side by the nucleophile, in this case water. The approximately equal chance of attacking either side of the cation leads to approximately equal amounts of enantiomeric products, which explains the observed optical rotation change. 6
76 11. (6 pts) Answer each of the following questions by circling your choice and then giving a few words of explanation for why you made that choice. a. Which of the following species is the better nucleophile? Why? The circled nucleophile is less stable since the charge is localized, it will therefore be more reactive in substitution reactions than the species on the right in which the charge is delocalized. b. Which of the following would react faster with NaCN in DMF? Why? Cl is a better leaving group than Cl since anion is more stable than Cl anion (size); S N 2 Reactions such as these go faster with better leaving groups. c. Which of the following solvents would allow for faster S N 2 reactions? Why? N C 3 C 3 Polar aprotic solvents work better in S N 2; polar protic, such as the alcohol here, will -bond to the nucleophile thereby forming a solvent coating around the nucleophile; this will slow down its approach to the electrophilic carbon. 7
