a)(Z)-2-Ethyl-2-buten-1-ol
Interpretation:
To draw the structure of (Z)-2-ethyl-2-buten-1-ol.
Concept introduction:
The longest continuous carbon chain which contains the hydroxyl group and any other functional group present is chosen. The chain is numbered from the end that gives the lowest number to the carbon with –OH group.
E-Z notation is used to represent the arrangement of different groups around the double bond. Applying the sequence rules the groups attached to the double bond are ranked as either higher or lower. If the groups of similar ranking on each carbon are arranged on the same side of the double bond then Z configuration is assigned. If the groups of similar rankings on each carbon are arranged on the opposite sides of the double bond then E configuration is assigned.
To draw:
The structure of (Z)-2-ethyl-2-buten-1-ol.
b)3-Cyclohexene-1-ol
Interpretation:
To draw the structure of 3-cyclohexene-1-ol.
Concept introduction:
In naming cyclic alcohols the parent name is derived from the cycloalkene ring by replacing –e of the cycloalkene with –ol. The ring is numbered from the carbon with –OH in such a way that lowest number possible is given to the carbons in the double bond.
To draw:
The structure of 3-cyclohexene-1-ol.
c) trans-3-Chlorocycloheptanol
Interpretation:
To draw the structure of trans-3-chlorocycloheptanol.
Concept introduction:
In naming cyclic alcohols the parent name is derived from the cycloalkene ring by replacing –e of the cycloalkene with –ol. The ring is numbered from the carbon with –OH in such a way that lowest number possible is given to the carbons in the double bond.
To draw:
The structure of trans-3-chlorocycloheptanol.
d) 1, 4-Pentanediol
Interpretation:
To draw the structure of 1, 4-pentanediol.
Concept introduction:
Alcohols are named as derivatives of the parent
To draw:
The structure of 1, 4-pentanediol.
e) 2, 6-Dimethylphenol
Interpretation:
To draw the structure of 2, 6-dimethylphenol.
Concept introduction:
Hydroxybenzenes are named as derivatives of phenol. If the ring contains other substituents also, the ring is numbered from the carbon with –OH in such a way that lowest number possible is given to the carbon with the substituent. While writing the name the substituents are arranged in the alphabetical order.
To draw:
The structure of 2, 6-dimethylphenol.
f) o-(2-hydroxyethyl) phenol.
Interpretation:
To draw the structure of o-(2-hydroxyethyl) phenol.
Concept introduction:
Hydroxybenzenes are named as derivatives of phenol. If the ring contains other substituent also the ring is numbered from the carbon with –OH in such a way that lowest number possible is given to the carbon with the substituent. While writing the name the substituents are arranged in the alphabetical order.
To draw:
The structure of o-(2-hydroxyethyl) phenol.

- a) When (Z)-3-methylhex-3-ene undergoes hydroboration–oxidation, two isomeric products are formed. Give their structures, and label each asymmetric carbon atom as (R) or (S). What is the relationship between these isomers?arrow_forward2,3-Dimethylfumaric acid has a molecular formula C6H8O4. It undergoes oxidativecleavage to form two identical compound N. Compound N is then reacted withethylmagnesium bromide to form compound O. Compound O is then hydrolysed inacidic condition to form compound P. Draw the structure of compound N, O and P. PLEASE PROVIDE CLEAR HANDWRITING, and explantionarrow_forwardA chiral amine A having the R configuration undergoes Hofmann elimination to form an alkene B as the major product.

- Compound A (C11H23Br) is a secondary alkyl halide. On being heated with a solution of sodium ethoxide in ethanol, compound A yielded a mixture of two alkenes B and C, each having molecular formula C11H22.
