Drawing Addition Reactions

For each of the following reactions draw the starting material on the left and the product on the right, separated by an arrow (in the Molecular Editor, use the reaction arrow tool). When you have finished drawing a reaction, check your answer by pressing the Check Reaction # button. Use the wedge drawing tool to indicate the configuration of stereogenic centers. Do not draw hydrogen atoms.
