Give the IUPAC name for the following compound. Be sure to use cis/trans, E/Z or R/S where appropriate. OEt 4 2 3 6 (6S)-ethoxyhept-(3Z)-en-3-ol 7 5 1 OH Question 2 (10 pts) Indicate which of the following two reactions, A or B would be faster. GIVE AN EXPLANATION THAT INCLUDES A DISCUSSION OF THE EXOTHERMICITY OR ENDOTHERMICITIES OF THE REACTIONS (only 1 point for the correct answer, 9 pts for the explanation) MeOH A Br + Br– heat MeOH B Br + Br– heat both reactions are endothermic, but reaction A is more endothermic since it makes a less stable ANTI-AROMATIC cation, reaction B is less endothermic since it makes a conjugated but NONAROMATIC cation, reactiuon B is thus faster - 3 - CHEMISTRY 234, Spring 2009 MIDTERM #2 NAME Question 3 (9 pts) Give the product of the following Diels-Alder reaction. Indicate both the relative and the absolute stereochemistry CN heat (±) + CN NMe 2 NMe2 Qestion 4 (9 pts) Give the diene and dienophile that react to give the provided structure in a Diels-Alder reaction OMe OMe CF CF3 heat 3 + (±) Extra Credit Question (5 pts.) In which kind of biomolecule can a photochemical 2 + 2 cycloaddition reaction take place DNA phospholipid carbohydrate protein from weekly work # 7 - 4 - CHEMISTRY 234, Spring 2009 MIDTERM #2 NAME Question 5 (18 pts.) For the following reactions, provide the missing MAJOR REACTION PRODUCT. Indicate stereochemistry where appropriate. 1 Equiv Me–MgBr a) Br Br Me Br HO O Na+ –OEt Ph Ph b) EtOH EtO Ph Ph Question 6 (25 pts.) For the following reaction, give a full curved-arrow pushing mechanism for formation of BOTH products and indicate the Lewis acid and base at each step (LA or LB) and whether they are also Bronsted acids and bases (BA or BB). Include all reasonable resonance contributors for any intermediates OMe Br H LB/BB HBr MeO + LA/BA MeOH (solvent) A B H LB/BB Me H O LB/BB H O O Me H H Me Me H O BA LA Me O + Me H O LA/BA LA/BA H b) Indicate which product would be formed under thermodynamically controlled conditions and which would be formed under kinetically controlled conditions and state which would be more likely to be formed at HIGHER temperature and give a BRIEF explanation kinetic = A, thermodynamic = B, B is more likely to be formed at HIGH temperature since higher temperature enables REVERSIBLE reactions and allows the reaction to explore the entire reaction energy surface and find the lowest energy product - 5 - CHEMISTRY 234, Spring 2009 MIDTERM #2 NAME Question 7 (25 pts.) Show how you would make the target componds on the right from the starting compounds on the left. Show reagents and conditions where appropriate, and the structures of important intermediate compounds. Do not show any (arrow pushing) mechanisms. CN CN NBS, h! CN heat Br CN Na+ –O-t-Bu Na+ –O-t-Bu NBS, h! Br Question 8 (12 pts) a) Give the curved arrow-pushing and the allowed product for the following cycloaddition reaction. Be sure to indicate both relative and absolute stereochemistry. H H H H C CN C CN heat O + O (±) O NC O CN b) How many "-electrons are involved in the reaction that you drew? _____6_____ c) For the number of electrons that are involved in YOUR reaction, is a Huckel or a Mobius transition state allowed? ___4_ =_ _M_o_b_i_u_s_, _6_ =_ _H_u_c_k_e_l _e_tc_.______ d) Explain WHY a Huckel/Mobius transition state (as appropriate) is allowed in YOUR reaction. Include a discussion of the energies of the electrons in the transition state in your explanation. 6 etc. electrons in a Huckel transition state are aromatic, lowering their energy 4 etc. electrons in a Mobius transition state are nonaromatic, lowering their energy by avoiding the anti-aromatic Huckel transition state - 6 - CHEMISTRY 234, Spring 2009 MIDTERM #2 NAME Question 9 (8 pts) a) Give the curved arrow-pushing for the following electrocyclic ring opening reaction heat b) Did THE REACTION SHOWN (which may or may not be an allowed reaction) proceed via a conrotatory or a disrotatory ring closure? ____c_o_n_r_o_ta_t_o_ry__________________ c) Did THE REACTION SHOWN (which may or may not be an allowed reaction) proceed via aHuckel or a Mobius transition state? ____M__o_b_iu_s_____________________ allowed d) Is THE REACTION SHOWN allowed or forbidden? ______________________________ Question 10 (12 pts) a) Give the curved arrow-pushing and the allowed product for the following electrocyclic ring closure reaction heat or b) ON TOP OF THE STRUCTURE, draw the HOMO of the reactant cation c) To form YOUR product, did the reaction proceed via a conrotatory or a disrotatory ring opening? __________c_o_n_ro_t_a_to_r_y____________ Question 11 (12 pts.) a) Give the curved arrow-pushing for the following cycloaddition reaction heat + Ph Ph A B b) On top of the two structures, draw the LUMO for A the HOMO for B c) FOR THE PROVIDED PRODUCT (which may or not be the allowed product), was the reaction suprafacial with respect to reactant A? (Y/N) ______y_e_s_____ d) FOR THE PROVIDED PRODUCT (which may or not be the allowed product), was the reaction suprafacial with respect to reactant B?
