For the following questions, clearly draw the structures of the expected MAJOR PRODUCT(S). Assume in each
case, that the stereochemistry of the reactant is exactly as shown and that no other stereoisomers are present in the
starting solution. Also assume that the existing substituents in the reactants DO NOT exert any steric bias or influence
facial selectivity of the alkene. Be careful NOT to draw duplicate structures; pointed will be deducted for redundant
answers. Once complete with this, indicate in the space provided, which of the following best describes the
stereochemical outcome or the stereochemical relationship(s) between the product(s). Options can be used more
than once, or not at all. (Each worth 5 points, 30 points total)
I. A pair of optically inactive meso- compounds is produced.
I. Two optically inactive racemic diastereomer are produced.
Ill. Two optically active diastereomers are products.
IV. A meso- compounds and a diastereomer (as a single enantiomer) are produced.
V. A single meso- compound is produced.
VI. The major product formed is produced as a racemate.
VIl. Two sets of optical active enantiomers are produced.
