When trans-3-hexene is subjected to ozonolysis in the presence of answer?
When trans-3-hexene is subjected to ozonolysis in the presence of an excess of acetaldehyde containing the isotope 18 O , an ozonide is isolated that contains the isotope at one of the oxygens. Use the mechanism of ozonolysis to postulate a structure for the ozonide, including the position of the isotope. (See Fig. P5.52 on p. 228.)
How to polymerize isobutylene?
Isobutylene (2-methylpropene) can be polymerized by treating it with liquid HF as shown in Fig. P5.53. A small amount of tert-butyl fluoride is formed in the reaction. Suggest a curved-arrow mechanism for this process, which is an example of cationic polymerization. (Hint: Carbocations are electrophiles that can react with alkene double bonds.)
Is polypropylene carbonate a green polymer?
Polypropylene carbonate is considered to be a "green" polymer because it is made from C O 2 and is biodegradable.#N#Draw out the structure of polypropylene carbonate for n = 3. (Leave the "dangling bonds" at the ends.)
