In the dehydrohalogenation of bromocyclodecane, the major product is cis-cyclodecene rather than trans-cyclodecene. Offer an explanation.
Draw a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction. The four-membered ring in the starting material and product is called aβ-lactam. This functional group confers biological activity on penicillin and many related antibiotics, as is discussed in Chapter 22. (Hint: The mechanism begins withβelimination and involves only two steps.)

Rank the alkenes shown in the ball-and-stick models (A–C) in order of increasing stability.

What is the major E2 elimination product formed from each halide?

a.

b.

c.
Consider the following E2 reaction.

a. Draw the by-products of the reaction and use curved arrows to show the movement of
electrons.
b. What happens to the reaction rate with each of the following changes? [1] The solvent is changed to DMF. [2] The concentration of is decreased. [3] The base is changed to localid="1648628375469" . [4] The halide is changed to localid="1648628387551" [5] The leaving group is changed to localid="1648628394364" .
