Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of 1-Hexanol with chromic acid has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation of alcohols: Oxidation of primary alcohol gives an
Chromic acid Oxidation of an Alcohol:
Step 1: Reaction of alcohol and chromic acid gives an alkyl chromate. No change in oxidation state of both Carbon and Chromium.
Step 2: Take a proton away and simultaneously break bonds to give stable molecules or ions. Reaction of the alkyl chromate with a base (here water molecule) results in cleavage of a
(b)
Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of 2-Hexanol with chromic acid has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation of alcohols: Oxidation of primary alcohol gives an aldehyde or a carboxylic acid, depending on experimental conditions.
Chromic acid Oxidation of an Alcohol:
Step 1: Reaction of alcohol and chromic acid gives an alkyl chromate. No change in oxidation state of both Carbon and Chromium.
Step 2: Take a proton away and simultaneously break bonds to give stable molecules or ions. Reaction of the alkyl chromate with a base (here water molecule) results in cleavage of a
(c)
Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of Cyclohexanol with chromic acid has to be drawn.

- Explain why pentane-2,4-dione forms two different alkylation products (A or B) when the number of equivalents of base is increased from one to two.arrow_forwardWhich of the following best describes phenol? Group of answer choices a benzene ring with an OH attached a cyclohexane with an OH attached a cyclohexene with OH attached all of the above are equally good descriptionsarrow_forwardwhich of the foolowing Compounds whose structure/s involve a benzene ring and two substituents o-cresol 2-bromophenol cathecol m-cresol resorcinol phenolarrow_forward
- how to draw in the arrows to show this reaction?arrow_forwardProvide an appropriate alkyne starting material A and intermediate product B. Omit byproducts. The number of carbon atoms in the starting material should be the same as in the final product.arrow_forwardDraw the structure of a compound of molecular formula C6H10 that reacts with H2 in the presence of Pd-C but does not react with H2 in the presence of Lindlar catalyst.arrow_forward
- Below are two potential methods for preparing the same ether (Option A and B), but only one of them is actually successful. Identify the successful approach (A or B)arrow_forwardWhich is more stable: a methyl cation or an ethyl cation? Why?arrow_forwarda. Draw the two chair forms for compound A, being careful to show the stereoisomergiven above. You may use shorthand R in your drawings. Indicate the MAJOR and MINORconformations b. Using curved-arrow convention and the correct chair form of Compound A, show themechanism for the formation of alkene C from Compound A. You may use B: to indicatethe base.arrow_forward
