Brainberene, a compound isolated from an organic chemist’s brain, has the molecular formula C16 H26. When Brainberene is subjected to catalytic hydrogenation using an excess of hydrogen, 1 mol of Brainberene absorbs 3 mol of hydrogen and produces B: C16 H32. 1) What is the element of unsatuation (IHD) of Brainberene? 2) How many double bonds and rings do Brainberene has? Laboratory experiments revealed that Brainberene has no triple bonds. 3) What is the IHD of B? d) How many double bonds and rings does B has? 12
1,4-Pentadiene (CH2=CH-CH2-CH=CH2) is a liquid at room temperature and has a density of 0.66 g/mL and molar mass of 68.12 g/mol. In a laboratory experiment, 3.80 mL of this compound was treated with 4.80 mL of conc. H2SO4 (100% w/w; molar mass 98.08 g/mol). Note that the density of conc. H2SO4 is 1.84 g/mL. The resulting sulfate ester was then treated with 1.20 mL of water (molar mass 18.02 g/mol) affording, after work- up, 2,4-pentanediol (molar mass 104.15 g/mol) as the crude product. The crude product was then purified by simple distillation, which yielded 2.00 g of pure product. What is the theoretical yield of 2,4-pentanediol expressed in grams? Show calculations. What is the percentage yield of pure 2,4-pentanediol?
