When the 1HNMR spectrum of an alcohol is run in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) solvent rather than in chloroform, exchange of the ÎŸ-H proton is slow and spin-spin splitting is seen between the ÎŸ-H proton and C-H protons on the adjacent carbon. What spin multiplicities would you expect for the hydroxyl protons in the following alcohols? (a) 2-Methyl-2-propanol (b) Cyclohexanol (c) Ethanol (d) 2-Propanol (e) Cholesterol (f) 1-Methylcyclohexanol

Oxidation of citronellol, a constituent of rose and geranium oils, with PCC in the presence of added NaOCOCH3 forms compound A. A has amolecular ion in its mass spectrum at 154 and a strong peak in its IRspectrum at 1730 cm−1, in addition to C—H stretching absorptions.Without added NaOCOCH3, oxidation of citronellol with PCC yieldsisopulegone, which is then converted to B with aqueous base. B has amolecular ion at 152 and a peak in its IR spectrum at 1680 cm−1, inaddition to C—H stretching absorptions. a.) Identify the structures of A and B.b.) Draw a mechanism for the conversion of citronellol to isopulegone.c.) Draw a mechanism for the conversion of isopulegone to B.
