Predict all the alkenes that would be formed by dehydrohalogenation of the following halides with sodium ethoxide in ethanol and identify the major alkene:
(i) 1-Bromo-1-methylcyclohexane
(ii) 2-Chloro-2-methylbutane
(iii) 2,2,3-Trimethyl-3-bromopentane.
Saytzeff's rule implies that in dehydrohalogenation reactions, the alkene having a greater number of alkyl groups attached to a doubly bonded carbon atoms is preferably produced. Therefore, alkene (I) i.e., 2-methylbut-2-ene is the major product in this reaction.
(iii)
2,2,3-Trimethyl-3-bromopentane
In the given compound, there are two different sets of equivalent β-hydrogen atoms labelled as a and b. Thus, dehydrohalogenation of the compound yields two alkenes.
According to Saytzeff's rule, in dehydrohalogenation reactions, the alkene having a greater number of alkyl groups attached to the doubly bonded carbon atom is preferably formed. Hence, alkene (I) i.e., 3,4,4-trimethylpent-2-ene is the major product in this reaction.
In a reaction between A and B, the initial rate of reaction (r0) was measured for different initial concentrations of A and B as given below:
A/ mol L - 1 |
0.20 | 0.20 | 0.40 |
B/ mol L - 1 |
0.30 | 0.10 | 0.05 |
r0/ mol L - 1 s - 1 |
5.07 × 10 - 5 |
5.07 × 10 - 5 |
1.43 × 10 - 4 |
What is the order of the reaction with respect to A and B?
