(a)
Interpretation:
The index of hydrogen deficiency for the given compound is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The index of hydrogen deficiency of a molecule is the extent to which the molecule is unsaturated. It is half the number of hydrogen atoms missing from the molecule as compared to a completely saturated molecule. The contribution of each double bond in a molecule to the molecule’s index of hydrogen deficiency is 1. The contribution of each triple bond in a molecule to the molecule’s index of hydrogen deficiency is 2. The contribution of each ring in a molecule to the molecule’s index of hydrogen deficiency is 1. If a molecule is saturated and has no rings, double bonds, and triple bonds, its index of hydrogen deficiency is 0.
Answer to Problem 4.47P
The index of hydrogen deficiency for the given compound is zero.
Explanation of Solution
The given compound is
This compound has all single bonds and is a saturated compound. There are no double bonds, triple bonds, or rings in the molecule. Each carbon atom is bonded to four other atoms via single bonds. Thus, the index of hydrogen deficiency for this compound is zero.
The index of hydrogen deficiency for a saturated compound is zero.
