Concept explainers
Compound A (C7H11Br) is treated with magnesium in ether to give B (C7H11MgBr), which reacts violently with D2O to give 1-methylcyclohexene with a deuterium atom on the methyl group (C). Reaction of B with acetone (CH3COCH3) followed by hydrolysis gives D (C10H18O). Heating D with concentrated H2SO4 gives E (C10H16), which decolorizes two -equivalents of Br2 to give F (C10H16Br4). E undergoes hydrogenation with excess H2 and a Pt catalyst to give isobutylcyclohexane. Determine the structures of compounds A through F, and show your reasoning throughout.

- (S)-2-butanol reacts with potassium dichromate (K2CrO4) in aqueous sulfuric acid to give A(C,HgO). Treatment of A with ethylmagnesium bromide in anhydrous ether gives B(C,H140). Draw the structure of B.arrow_forwardCompound A has the formula C₂H₁9Cl. B is a C₂H19Br compound. A and B undergo base-promoted E2 elimination to give the same alkene C as the major product as well as different minor products. C reacts with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2,6-dimethylheptane. Addition of HCI to C yields A as the major product. Propose structures for A and B. • Do not use stereobonds in your answer. • In cases where there is more than one possible structure for each molecule, just give one for each. • Draw one structure per sketcher.
