PROBLEM 15-20(a) Show that the [4 + 4] cycloaddition of two butadiene molecules to give cycloocta1,5-diene is thermally forbidden but photochemically allowed.(b) There is a different, thermally allowed cycloaddition of two butadiene molecules. Showthis reaction, and explain why it is thermally allowed. (Hint: Consider the dimerizationof cyclopentadiene.)
PROBLEM 4-4
Free-radical chlorination of hexane gives very poor yields of 1-chlorohexane, while cyclohexane
can be converted to chlorocyclohexane in good yield.
(a) How do you account for this difference?
(b) What ratio of reactants (cyclohexane and chlorine) would you use for the synthesis of
chlorocyclohexane?
