The given
Concept Introduction:
Carbocation: it is carbon ion that bears a positive charge on it.
Leaving group: it is a fragment that leaves from a substrate with a pair of electrons via heterolytic bond cleavage.
Carbocation stability order:
Resonance stabilization: Due to the delocalization of electrons within the molecule the overall energy becomes lower and makes that molecule more stable.
Nucleophile: Nucleophiles are species that donate an electron pair and are also termed as electron-hating species.
Electrophile: Electrophiles are species that accept an electron pair and are also termed as electron-loving species.

Interpretation:
The given alkenes should be arranged in increasing rate when they react with

In the first step, G undergoes a Wittig reaction, leading to the formation of an alkene, H. Subsequently, H is treated with an ozone (O3) reagent followed by a reducing agent in an ozonolysis reaction, resulting in the formation of two different products, I and J. Considering the functional groups present in G and the nature of the reactions involved, what are the most probable structures or functional groups present in products I and J? A. I contains a carboxylic acid group, and J contains an aldehyde group. B. I contains a ketone group, and J contains an alcohol group. C. I and J both contain aldehyde groups. D. I contains an ester group, and J contains a ketone group. Don't use chat gpt.arrow_forward1) 3- Methyl-2-butanol will react with H2SO4 to give two isomeric alkenes. Write suitable reaction mechanism to show how these isomeric products are achieved and indicate the major product. Write the IUPAC name for each product.arrow_forward
- Describe how 1-ethylcyclohexanol can be prepared from cyclohexane. You can use any inorganic reagents, any solvents, and any organic reagents as long as they contain no more than two carbons.arrow_forwardOne compound that contributes to the “seashore smell” at beaches in Hawai‘i is dictyopterene D', a component of a brown edible seaweed called limu lipoa. Hydrogenation of dictyopterene D' with excess H2 in the presence of a Pd catalyst forms butylcycloheptane. Ozonolysis with O3 followed by (CH3)2S forms CH2(CHO)2, HCOCH2CH(CHO)2, and CH3CH2CHO. What are possible structures of dictyopterene D'?arrow_forwarddraw the two possible carbocations that can form when this alkene reacts with a strong acid (such as HBr or H3O+). of the two structures you drew, circle the more stable carbocationarrow_forward
