Question: Draw a stepwise, detailed mechanism for the following reaction.

Question: Show how the following starting material is converted to the given product by a series of two pericyclic reactions. Account for the observed stereochemistry.

Question: How can X be prepared from a constitutional isomer by a series of cycloaddition reactions? Interest in molecules that contain several cyclobutane rings fused together has been fueled by the discovery of pentacycloanammoxic acid methyl ester, a lipid isolated from the membrane of organelles in the bacterium Candidatus Brocadia anammoxidans. The role of this unusual natural product is as yet unknown.

Question:Show that a thermal suprafacial addition is symmetry allowed in a [4 + 2] cycloaddition by using the HOMO of the alkene and the LUMO of the diene.
Question: What product is formed when each compound in Problem 27.6 undergoes photochemical electrocyclic ring-opening or ring closure? Label each process as conrotatory or disrotatory and clearly indicate the stereochemistry around tetrahedral stereogenic centers and double bonds.
