PRACTICE NOTES Flashcards
E2 reactions must be
antiperplanar - H and Br opposite sides
E2 favours (weak or strong) bases
strong
state order of preference for E reactions
3 - 2-1
solvent for E2 are
conj acid
solvent for E1
protic polar, use poor nuclephile such as H20, OH
what are solvent for SN2
aprotic polar
solvent for SN1
protic polar
for strecker synthesis what are 3 main steps
- aldehyde
- N added, replaces the O
- KCN – isomerization
gabriel synthesis steps
pthalamide, througth SN2 reactions, hydrolysis, and decarboxylation **isomerization
which is more stable trans or cis
trans
all are S configuration except for
cysteins
for enantiomers do they have similar properties
yes
racemic is optiacally ______
inactive
diastermos have ___ properties
different
D glucose and D galactose are
epimers
meso compounds are optically ____ and do _____ polarize light
inactive, not, symmety
if eclipsed state then _____
energy and unstable
bond angle of sp3 is
109.5
all large substituents are on ____ axi or equatorial
equatorial
NaHCO3 is a weak or strong base
weak
if a full negative cahrge is put on like a phenol it will or not disslove solubility
yes it will go on aqueous layer
weak base can/not deprotonate carboxy acids
yes they can
strong bases can deprotonate what
carboxy acids, and phenols
with stereospecificit it will
preserve the same in substrate and product- its specific from telling the product you can tell how the config for substrate
stereoselectivity is when you have
major and minor products, trans/cis
for alpha decay explain
alpha is lost so you minus 4, minus 2
beta negative decay is when lose electron, so in this case
add 1 to atomic number
beta positive it will
emit positron (electron to proton), minus 1 from atomic number
what is positron
ll the properties of an electron except for the polarity of the electrical charge,
