Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.56SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism for two given exothermic reactions is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Chemical species that has negative charge or lone pair of electron on it are known as nucleophile. Nucleophiles attack on electron deficient atom and give addition or substitution products depending upon the bond strength of leaving group.

When trans-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, cyclohexene oxide is the product. However, when cis-2-chloro-1-cyclohexanol is treated with a base, the product is cyclohexanone.
Write the mechanism for each of the two reactions.
Hydration of aldehydes and ketones can be catalyzed by acid
or base. Bases catalyze hydration by:
protonating the carbonyl oxygen
making the carbonyl group more electrophilic
employing hydroxide ion, which is a better nucleophile than water
making the carbonyl group less electrophilic
shifting the equilibrium position of the reaction to favor products
Acetylene reacts with
sodium amide in the
presence of propyl
halide
produces aldehyde
produces ketones
It produces 2-pentane
