Question

6.30 Draw the products of each reaction by following the curved arrows. 6.31 (a) Add curved arrows for each step to show how A is converted to the epoxy ketone C. (b) Classify the conversion of A to C as a substitution, elimination, or addition. (c) Draw one additional resonance structure for B. 6.32 (a) Draw in the curved arrows to show how A is converted to B in Step [1]. (b) Identify X, using the curved arrows drawn for Step [2].

Step 1

The curved arrows show that the lone pair of electrons on the oxygen in the alcohol attacks the hydrogen in H-Br, breaking the H-Br bond and forming a new O-H bond. This results in a positive charge on the bromine atom and a positive charge on the oxygen atom in Show more…
