. (0 points) Page A. DB is a strong, bulky base that is often used to encourage elimination reactions over substitution reactions. n both of the following cases, the resulting bimolecular elimination reaction yields a single major product which can be explained by conformational favorability in the starting material. Draw the product for each and draw the conformation that favors its formation. Using a chair, draw the conformation (ii) elected product that is favored and leads to the product DB 1 equivalent Draw the conformation appropriately: draw both axial and equatorial positions for each ring atom that has a substituent. 5 Using a ewman projection, draw the conformation that is favored and leads to the product (ii) elected product DB View the - bond as indicated 5 B. omplete the following regioselective reactions by drawing the intermediate of highest energy that forms during the reaction (best resonance contributor if applicable), and draw the final product(s) as well. f either the intermediate or the regioselected product(s) forms as a stereoisomeric mixture, draw one and write "+enantiomer" or "+diastereomer" in the box. highest energy intermediate (ii) Final product(s) predicted to form no stereochem no partial -1 if "+ enantiomer" -1 if "+ enantiomer" highest energy intermediate predicted to form (ii) Final product(s) (cat.) no partial -1 if "+ enantiomer" + diastereomer
