- Give the structure of ONE product formed when each of the molecules A, B, C & D is chlorinated in the presence of AlCl3arrow_forwardCompound A is first treated with ylide Y and then reacted with Rh and hydrogen gas. Using the spectroscopic data provided, what is the structure of Compound A?arrow_forwardgive the structural formula for compounds A to Garrow_forward
- A compound A, C7H12, was found to be optically active. On catalytic reduction over platinum catalyst, 2 equivalents of hydrogen were absorbed, yielding compound B, C7H16. On ozonolysis of A, two fragments were obtained. One fragment was identified as acetic acid. The other fragment, compound C, was an optically active carboxylic acid, C5H10O2. Write the reactions and draw structures for A, B and C.arrow_forwardAn organic compound A of unknown structure was found to have a molecular formula C8H16. When A was poured in water and heated, compound B having a molecular formula C8H18O was formed. B upon heating with sulfuric acid was converted to C as the major product which is identical to A. Ozonolysis of C gave one molecule each of two different products D and E, both having a molecular formula C4H8O. Write the reactions involved and determine the structure of A,B,C,D and E.arrow_forwardGive the structure of compound 1 and compound 2arrow_forward
- 4. An organic was subjected to sodium fusion and the resulting Lassaigne’s extract boiled with FeSO4 and acidified with concentrated H2SO4, yielding a Prussian blue color. Give the structure of one organic compound which fits this description?arrow_forwardCompound A(C10H12O)gives off oxygen on treatment with sodium metal and also decolorizes Br2 in CCl4 to give organic compound B. Compound A on treatment with I2 in NaOH gives iodoform and salt C which after acidification gives a white solid D(C7H6O2). Using knowledge of organic chemistry identify structures A,B,C and Darrow_forwardCompound A has the molecular formula C14H25Br and was obtained by reaction of sodium acetylide (HC≡CNa) )with 1,12-dibromododecane. On treatment of compound A with sodium amide, it was converted to compound B (C14H24). Ozonolysis of compound B gave the diacid HO2C(CH2)12CO2H. Catalytic hydrogenation of compound B over Lindlar palladium gave compound C (C14H26), while hydrogenation over platinum gave compound D (C14H28). Sodium-ammonia reduction of compound B gave compound E (C14H26). Both C and E yielded O═CH(CH2)12CH═O on ozonolysis. Assign structures to compound A through E so as to be consistent with the observed transformations.arrow_forward
- Given that five isomeric compounds (A, B, C, D, E) with the molecular formula C5H10O were subjected to chemical tests after undergoing Clemmensen reduction compounds A,B, and C all yielded n-pentane, the results of these tests are provided in the table below. Can you draw the structures of compounds A to E based on the outcomes of the chemical tests?arrow_forwardGive the structure of ONE product formed when each of the following molecules above is chlorinated in the presence of AlCl3 Give the names of A, B, C, & Darrow_forwardCompound A was oxidized with periodic acid to give B, which after acid hydrolysis gave C. Bromine oxidation of C gave D. Suggest structural formulas, including stereochemistry, for compounds B, C, and D.arrow_forward
