A mechanism for the following reaction is shown below. Add curved arrows to explain the electron flow in each step of the mechanism. Using the following information, construct a reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. The product is more stable than the reactant. Draw the transition state structure for any two steps in the previous mechanism.
Numerous compounds undergo free radical oxidation reactions on exposure to the oxygen in air.
Two steps in this chain reaction with diethyl ether are shown below. Add curved arrows to explain the electron flow in both of the steps, and identify if these are initiation, propagation, or termination steps. Initiation Propagation Termination 6. The molecules shown below are several different representations for the antidepressant drug Prozac. Compare each drawing to determine whether they are enantiomers or the same compound.
