Little unsure as to where to put this thread, but I was hoping somebody could provide me with some insight.
Walked out of my OChem 2 exam today and this was the mechanism (attached below). Basically, we had to outline all the potential products on a cyclohexane conjugated diene reacting with HI.
I ended up writing out 6 products. 4 of which are below attached on the image. The other 2 were if the double bond attacking the hydrogen, placing the charge on the carbon that was too far from the other double bond resulting in no resonance. Would that be correct or are the products only as below? What I was thinking was it'd be possible, but you'd just have low yield so I listed it anyway.
Feeling kinda ****ty right now about my first test results.
