Electrophilic Addition of HX δ+ δ– electrophile nucleophile
Reaction Conditions • hydrogen halide: HXcommon solvents: chloroform (CHCl3) ,dichloromethane (CH2Cl2), pentane, acetic acidgenerally performed at low temperature (below 0 °C)generally a fast reaction
Electrophilic Addition (AdE) Mechanism • electrophilic addition: AdERDS = protonation of carbonrate = k[alkene][hydrogen halide]unlike oxygen and nitrogen, protonation of carbon is slowproceeds through carbocation intermediate
HX Addition is Regioselective Regioselectivity Preferential reaction at one site of a single functional group over other sites that could undergo the same reaction CHEM 232 Definition, 2010
Markovnikov’s Rule 2º 3º addition of HX to an unsymmetrically substituted alkene proceeds so that hydrogen (H) adds to the least substituted carbon and the halide (X) adds to the most substituted carbon atom
Self Test Question Predict the product when 2,4-dimethyl-2-pentene is treated with HCl? A. 3-chloro-2,4-dimethylpentane B. 2-chloroohexane C. 2,3-dichloro-2,4-dimethylpentane D. 2-chloro-2,4-dimethylpentane E. 1-chloro-2,4-dimethylpentane
Mechanistic Basis for Markovnikov’s Rule • Hammond Postulate: • transition state structure resembles closest energy intermediate • transition state resembles carbocation for endothermic RDS (late transition state) • what stabilizes carbocation also stabilizes transition state • lowest energy transition state leads to more substituted carbocation • more substituted carbocation provides more substituted alkyl halide

Dehydration can be “Coupled” with Other Chemical Transformation Two-step, one-pot transformation involves a Friedel-Crafts reaction (see, Chapter 12) and dehydration of the resulting 3° alcohol

Self Test Question What is the product(s) of the following reaction? A. B. C. D. E.
Types of Selectivity in Organic Chemistry There are three forms of selectivity to consider . . . . • Chemoselectivity: whichfunctional group will react • Regioselectivity: where it will react • Stereoselectivity: howit will react with regards to stereochemical outcome . . . for each transformation, always question which of these are factors are at play.
Regioselectivity of Elimination Regioselectivity: Where Will It React? Preferential reaction at one site of a single functional group over other sites that could undergo the same reaction CHEM 232 Definition, 2009
Stability of Carbocations (Lecture 8) 2. Hyperconjugation stabilizing interaction that results from the interaction of the electrons in a σ-bond (C–H or C–C bond ) with an adjacent empty (or partially filled) orbital. Leads to the formation of an extended molecular orbital that increases the stability of the system • stabilization results from σ-donation to empty p orbital of planar carbocation • electron donation through σ-bonds toward carbocation delocalizes charge (spreads out) • methyl cations cannot be stabilized by hyperconjugation since σ-bonds are perpendicular to the empty p orbital 1º cation

Reversal of Addition RegioslectivtyThe Peroxide Effect • alkyl peroxides easily fromed from alkanes/alkenes by reaction with O2 in the air • presence of peroxides leads to anti-Markovnikov product (least substituted alkyl bromide) • peroxide effect only operates when HBr
Mechanistic Rationale for Peroxide Effect peroxides are radical initiators: they undergo homolysis to generate alkoxy radicals, which begin the chain mechanism
Mechanistic Rationale for Peroxide Effect • bromine radical adds to the least substituted carbon of alkene • this generates the mostsubstituted and most stable alkyl radical • alkyl radical undergoes hydrogen abstraction from HBr to generate a new bromine radical (chain mechanism)
Addition of Sulfuric Acid to Alkenes alkene compare to: alcohol elimination alkene(s)
Sulfuric Acid Addition: AdE Mechanism • Markovnikov’s rule appliesprotonation occurs to provide most stable (most substituted) carbocationleads to formation of most substituted alkyl hydrogen sulfate
Hydrolysis of Alkyl Hydrogen Sulfates • don’t worry about mechanism for hydrolysisonly requires hot watercleavage of the O-S bondsubstitution of S with H

Spectroscopy vs. Spectrometry Spectroscopy study of the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter; typically involves the absorption of electromagnetic radiation Spectrometry evaluation of molecular identity and/or properties that does not involve interaction with electromagnetic radiation
Absorption/Transmission Spectroscopy: Simplified Principles • sample absorbs different frequencies of light corresponding to molecular vibrations (IR) or electronic transitions (UV-vis) • detector determines what frequencies of light passed through (transmittance) and what frequencies of light were absorbed (absorbance)
Electromagnetic Spectrum shorter wavelength (λ) higher frequency (ν) higher energy (E) longer wavelength (λ) lower frequency (ν) lower energy (E) Electromagnetic Radiation • propagated at the speed of light (3 x108 m/s) • has properties of particles and waves • energy is directly proportional to frequency • energy is indirectly proportional to wavelength E = hν c = νλ

Principles of Infrared Spectroscopy IR: Measures the vibrational energy associated with stretching or bending bonds that contain a dipole moment (µ). Stretching Bending
Dipole Moment In order to measure the stretching or bending frequency of a covalent bond, it must have a dipole moment (μ).
Hooke’s Law: Bonds are Like Springs Vibrational Energy Depends both on bond strength (spring force constant) and the mass of atoms (objects) attached √ (m1 + m2) ~ f * Trends: ↑ bond strength = ↑ frequency ↑ mass = ↓ frequency ν = k (m1 * m2) ~ ν = vibrational “frequency” in wavenumbers (cm-1) k = constant (1/2πc) f = force constant; strength of bond (spring) m1, m2 = masses (not molecular weights) of attached atoms
Spring Analogy smaller mass = higher frequency = higher energy stronger spring (bond) = higher frequency = higher energy
Wavenumber (ῡ) and Infrared Scale 1 ῡ (cm-1) = λ (cm) higher wavenumber (ῡ) = higher frequency (υ) = lower wavelength (λ) = higher energy (E) lower wavenumber (ῡ) = lower frequency (υ) = longer wavelength (λ) = lower energy (E) wavenumber = reciprocal of the wavelength measured in centimeters (cm); directly proportional to frequency
Infrared Spectrum Transmittance: amount of light that passes through sample; not absorbed by molecular vibrations % Transmission Frequency: typically measured in wavenumbers; higher wavenumber = higher frequency = higher energy vibration Bands: frequency of vibration absorbed by molecules; can be broad or narrow; number of bands does not equal number of bonds
