- Under certain reaction conditions, 2,3-dibromobutane reacts with two equivalents of base to give three products, each of which contains two new p bonds. Product A has two sp hybridized carbon atoms, product B has one sp hybridized carbon atom, and product C has none. What are the structures of A, B, and C?arrow_forwardCompound X has molecular formula C5H10. In the presence of a metal catalyst, compound X reacts with one equivalent of molecular hydrogen to yield 2-methylbutane. (1) Suggest three possible structures for compound X. (2) Hydroboration-oxidation of compound X yields a product with no chirality centers. Identify the structure of compound X.arrow_forwardIdentify the structures of A and B, isomers of molecular formula C10H12O2, from their IR data and 1H NMR spectra.a.

- Compound A whose molecular formula is C9H11ClO, is found to be aromatic, and on vigorous oxidation with hot, concentrated, basic potassium permanganate followed by acidification, a new aromatic, compound B with the molecular formula of C7H5ClO2 is formed. On treatment with bromine and a ferric bromide catalyst, compound B produces ONLY 2 monobrominated derivatives, compounds C and D, each having the molecular formula C7H4BrClO2. On treatment with sodium metal, compound A produces bubbles of hydrogen gas. Controlled oxidation of compound A with PCC first gives compound E, with formula C9H9ClO. Compound E produces a silver mirror with Tollen’s reagent. Mild oxidation of compound E by chromic acid produces compound F, with the molecular formula C9H9ClO2 which turns blue litmus red. When compound A is heated with concentrated sulfuric acid, a single compound G, whose molecular formula is C9H9Cl, is produced. On ozonolysis followed by reaction with dimethyl sulfide, compound G gives…arrow_forwardUse the 1H NMR and IR spectra given below to identify the structures of two isomers (A and B) having molecular formula C4H8O2.arrow_forwardCompounds A and B are isomers having molecular formula C5H12. Heating A with Cl2 gives a single product of monohalogenation, whereas heating B under the same conditions forms three constitutional isomers. What are thestructures of A and B?arrow_forward

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. Catalytic hydrogenation of the major isomer B or the minor isomer C gave only 3,5-diethylheptane. Draw structures for compounds A, B, and C consistent with these observations.arrow_forward
- Compound X, C8H17Cl, is a chiral product of the radical chlorination of 4-methylheptane.X reacts in SN2 fashion with NaI in acetone to form Z, C8H17I.

It exists in two forms:the enol form and the keto form The molecule reacts with OH–to form an anion, [CH3COCHCOCH3] (often abbreviatedacac–for acetylacetonate ion). One or the most interesting aspects of this anion is thatone or more of them can react with transition metal cations to give stable, highlycolored compounds (a) Are the keto and enol forms of acetylacetone resonance forms?
