- Identify compounds G,H,E in the following reaction sequences.arrow_forwardDraw a detailed mechanism for the following reaction and include the major productarrow_forwardProvide a complete, detailed mechanism for the reaction shown below. Use arrows to indicate the flow of electrons and draw the structure of all intermediates. Draw the structures of two other alkenes that could have produced the product shown above.arrow_forward
- The reaction shown here is an example of the Favorskii reaction, which involves an R¯ leaving group in a nucleophilic addition-elimination reaction. (a) Draw the complete, detailed mechanism for this reaction and explain why R can act as a leaving NaOH H2O group. (b) Suggest how you can synthesize an ester from cyclopropanone using only this reaction.arrow_forwardNo reaction occurs when benzaldehyde and propenenitrile (acrylonitrile) are combined. In the presence of a catalytic amount of NaCN, however, the reaction shown here takes place. Draw a complete, detailed mechanism to account for these results. Hint: See Problem 18.70. NaCN TH. + CN `CN HOH,0, ELOHarrow_forwardProvide the mechanism and the structure of the products A and B in the given reaction.arrow_forward

- Draw the mechanisms for this reaction with transition state. Please provide explanation also.arrow_forwardProvide the complete mechanism in the following reactions.arrow_forwardUpon oxidation, phenols are transformed to p-benzoquinone, which can undergo a cycloaddition reaction with a diene to make (1). After acidic workup with HCl, a tautomerization transforms the product back to a phenol derivative (2). Draw the complete, detailed mechanism of p-benzoquinone to (1) and the mechanism from (1) to (2). please explain!arrow_forward
