Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compounds A and B formed in the given electrophilic addition reaction are to be identified and the reason is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

>

The alkene, on reaction with hydrogen bromide without peroxide, undergoes addition reaction in a way that the hydrogen is bonded to less substituted carbon of double bond and bromine is bonded to more substituted carbon of double bond.This is called Markovnikov's rule.

Hydrocarbon X has the formula C6H12.X reacts with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form a product having 12 primary hydrogens.Treatment of X with ozone followed by zinc in aqueous acid gives a mixture two aldehydes.What is the structure of X?
Treatment 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.
