Chapter 17, Problem 23P
Although
three-membered ring, the prefix epoxy in the IUPAC system of nomenclature can
be used to denote a cyclic ether of various sizes. Thus
may be named 1,3-epoxy-2-methylhexane. Using the epoxy prefix in this way,
name each of the following compounds:
(b) 
(c) 
(d)

An 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.
Using 1-butene as the only organic starting material, outline how each of the following compounds might be synthesized from it, stating clearly the reaction conditions in each case.
a. 2-butanol
b. 2-butanone
c. Butane
d. 1,2-Dichlorobutane
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?
