Question:Predict the products of the following reactions. Don’t worry about thesize of the molecule; concentrate on the functional groups.

What alkenes might be used to prepare the following alcohols by hydroboration-oxidation?
When a single alkene monomer, such as ethylene, is polymerized, the product is a homopolymer. If a mixture of two alkene monomers is polymerized, however, a copolymer often results. The following structure represents a segment of a copolymer called Saran. What two monomers were copolymerized to make Saran?

Dichlorocarbene can be generated by heating sodium trichloroacetate.
Propose a mechanism for the reaction, and use curved arrows to indicate
the movement of electrons in each step. What relationship does
your mechanism bear to the base-induced elimination of HCl from
chloroform?

Predict the products of the following reactions (the aromatic ring is
unreactive in all cases). Indicate regiochemistry when relevant.
