The target compound that you should synthesize is bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxyl ic acid methyl ester. This is a cycloaddition reaction. Examine the product to determine the reactive partners. Keep in mind the position of the alkene in the product. Try pushing the electrons backwards to reveal the needed substrates. Keep in mind the stereochemistry of the process. Required:
a. List the starting materials, solvent, reagent, and products formed.
b. How long did it take to finish the reaction?
c. What are the TLC values (R,) for

1. Starting Materials
2. Products

c. Write a mechanism for this reaction. (you may draw the

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.

the answer is 75.0%.

the correct answer is c
