Problem #7. Whenever you are considering a reaction that proceeds through a true carbocation mechanism, you must keep an cye out for carbocation rearrangements: 1,2-hydride shifts and 1,2-alkyl shifts. These will only occur if the cation that is formed is more stable than the cation that you started with. a) Circle the rearrangements that would occur and draw an X over the arrow for the rearrangements that would NOT occur CH3 CH3 H3C H3C CH3- CH H3C H3C H CH3 H3C CH3 H3C CH3 H3C CH3 b) Choose one of the reactions from part a) that would NOT occur and explain why not. c) Choose one of the reactions from part a) that would occur, and explain why it is NOT reversible
