Thermodynamic (1,4)addition

Nnesha:

|dw:1576473877050:dw| I don't understand why the answer is 1,2 addition instead of 1,4

Nnesha:

qwerty chem expert ?? :'[

imqwerty:

Expert? No way xD

Nnesha:

orgo is killing me. I'm diene.

imqwerty:

I'm kinda confused with what's going on because the product neither does look like kinetically formed not does it looks like thermodynamically formed

imqwerty:

|dw:1576525050686:dw| I think this should be the result of kinetically controlled product (when the temperature is low) But since the temperature is high we must get the thermodynamically controlled product

imqwerty:

|dw:1576525206385:dw| Thermodynamically controlled product

imqwerty:

I'm done with organic chem :)

Nnesha:

i'm going to fail..

imqwerty:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @imqwerty Created with RaphaëlReply Using Drawing Thermodynamically controlled product \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) I think that this should've been the product because the temperature is high and so the most thermodynamically stabled product(which is this drawing) should be formed

imqwerty:

I can't quote a drawing? @Ultrilliam

imqwerty:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Nnesha i'm going to fail.. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) F :-)

Ultrilliam:

Hmmm... that's a good point, but understandable with how it works, I might change that so it does, thanks for the feedback! :)

Nnesha:

how do we know which double bond we need to break??

imqwerty:

For the kinetically controlled product I just picked the one which had more electron density on it- the one with more alpha hydrogens

imqwerty:

For the thermodynamically controlled product I chose the one which was forming a more stable final product

Nnesha:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @imqwerty For the kinetically controlled product I just picked the one which had more electron density on it- the one with more alpha hydrogens \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) so more stable carbocation ??

Nnesha:

see there are like 50+ things we need to keep in mind in order to solve just one question -_-

imqwerty:

Tbh I think i'm confused and missing out on some points :l Can't really think straight rn, I'll check it tomorrow?

Nnesha:

Thank you for trying!! appreciate it! :--)

Nnesha:

btw any tips for synthesis ??

imqwerty:

Wdym by synthesis

Nnesha:

Chemical synthesis when given is the reactant and product and "100"mhmm reagents and we have to find which reagent applied

imqwerty:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Nnesha Chemical synthesis when given is the reactant and product and "100"mhmm reagents and we have to find which reagent applied \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) You have to know them all Sometimes you don't have to actually remember the exact type of reaction; just knowing the properties of the reagents and reactants is enough

imqwerty:

Yep, whenever you're stuck- there's a YouTube video for it.

Nnesha:

I watched that video already I think the answer key is wrong.

Nnesha:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @imqwerty Yep, whenever you're stuck- there's a YouTube video for it. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) I wish i can search for a new brain as well..

Nnesha:

thank you!

imqwerty:

Np

imqwerty:

the kinetically controlled product i made is wrong it should be this-|dw:1576568881024:dw|

imqwerty:

|dw:1576568956056:dw|

Nnesha:

|dw:1576569146457:dw| do you mean like this ?

Nnesha:

|dw:1576569227662:dw| on the answer key this is the product given under heated(high temp) condition

imqwerty:

like this- |dw:1576569287681:dw|

Nnesha:

and it also says thermodynamic = most stable double bond product kinetic = most stable carbocation

Nnesha:

|dw:1576569384237:dw| move + away on 2nd carbon

Nnesha:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @imqwerty perhaps the ans key is wrong \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) i think so too

imqwerty:

nvm.. the answer given is correct the double bond in the answer is the most stable

Nnesha:

well if we are looking for more stable carbocation product then kinetic one is correct|dw:1576569604759:dw|

imqwerty:

yeah, that makes sense it would rearrange and form a more stable carbocation in case of kinetically controlled product

Nnesha:

yep
