Chemistry 2301 Friday, July 18 Workshop 15 Diverted Alkene Addition Mechanisms In each of the pairs of reactions below, the first reaction is a “standard” reaction that looks very much like what we’ve covered in class, and the second reaction diverges from the standard mechanism in some way. For every reaction (both standard and diverted) draw a mechanism that explains why the given product is formed. You might want to use your notes from the past week for reference.
