Chapter 23, Problem 23.72QP
A compound with a fragrant odor reacts with dilute acid to give two organic compounds, A and B. Compound A is identified as an alcohol with a molecular weight of 32.0 amu. Compound B is identified as an acid. It can be reduced to give a compound whose composition is 60.0% C, 13.4% H, and 26.6% O and whose molecular weight is 60.1 amu. What is the name of the original compound?
