Question 2. Consider the two reactions below (A and B). Reaction A requires heating to 200 °C and takes 24 hours to reach equilibrium. Reaction B reaches equilibrium in less than one hour at room temperature! However, both reactions are proceeding via the same type of pericyclic reaction. ΓΧn A D C 200 °C. 24 hours 21 °C. < 1 hour rxn B a. Determine what type of pericyclic reaction, including the sub-class specific number systems, is occurring here ie (4+2] cycloaddition, 8x electrocyclization, or (1.7)-sigmatropic rearrangement b. Provide an explanation for the dramatic difference in reactivity of these two molecules.
