- Nonconjugated , -unsaturated ketones, such as 3-cyclohexenone, are in an acid-catalyzed equilibrium with their conjugated , -unsaturated isomers. Propose a mechanism for this isomerization.arrow_forwardThe following sequence of steps converts (R)-2-octanol to (S)-2-octanol. Propose structural formulas for intermediates A and B, specify the configuration of each, and account for the inversion of configuration in this sequence.arrow_forwardShow reagents and experimental conditions to synthesize the following compounds from 1-propanol (any derivative of 1-propanol prepared in one part of this problem may be used for the synthesis of another part of the problem).

- Account for the fact that treating propenoic acid (acrylic acid) with HCl gives only 3-chloropropanoic acid.arrow_forwardTreatment of p-hydroxybenzoic acid with aqueous bromine leads to the evolution of carbon dioxide and the formation of 2,4,6-tribromophenol. Explain.arrow_forwardA synthetic organic molecule, G, which contains both aldehyde and ether functional groups, is subjected to a series of reactions in a multi-step synthesis pathway. In the first step, G undergoes a Wittig reaction, leading to the formation of an alkene, H. Subsequently, H is treated with an ozone (O3) reagent followed by a reducing agent in an ozonolysis reaction, resulting in the formation of two different products, I and J. Considering the functional groups present in G and the nature of the reactions involved, what are the most probable structures or functional groups present in products I and J? A. I contains a carboxylic acid group, and J contains an aldehyde group. B. I contains a ketone group, and J contains an alcohol group. C. I and J both contain aldehyde groups. D. I contains an ester group, and J contains a ketone group. Don't use chat gpt.arrow_forward
- Acetylacetone (pentane-2,4-dione) reacts with sodium hydroxide to give water and the sodium salt of a carbanion. Write a complete structural formula for the carbanion, and use resonance forms to show the stabilization of the carbanion.arrow_forwardDraw the structure of each product from the reaction of benzene with 2-chloro-1-methylcyclohexane using AlCl 3 as the catalyst and Identify the major product.arrow_forwardNitromethane is reacted with ethyl prop-2-enoate with EtO-Na+, EtOH 3 equivalents to give the product X(C16). X then reacts with H2/Raney Ni to give the product Y(C14), which in turn reacts with Na to give Z (C12). Indicate which products X, Y and Z are.arrow_forward
- 1. In the reactions involving the three isomeric alcohols with the formula C4H9OH, describewhat each of the following tests showed about reactivity of the -OH group and reactions of 1°,2°, and 3° alcohols.• the test with neutral KMnO4• the test with concentrated HCl2. Predict how the fourth alcohol with the formula C4H10O would react if tested with:• 0.01 M KMnO4• concentrated HCl at room temperatureExtend FurtherUse your observations of the solutions formed in the previous experiments and yourunderstanding of alcohols to complete a table like the one shown below. Research the meltingand boiling points to verify your answers.arrow_forwardWrite reactions of 2-methylbutanoic acid with the following reagents: a. CH3OH/H+ b. PBr5.arrow_forwardTreatment of cis-4-bromocyclohexanol with HO– affords compound A and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. Treatment of trans-4- bromocyclohexanol under the same conditions forms compound B and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. A and B contain different functional groups and are not isomers of each other. Propose structures for A and B and offer an explanation for their formation.arrow_forward
