Describe the stereochemistry of the product solutions for the two different conditions.arrow_forward
- Provide a mechanism which explains the following conversions. Include all intermediates (where appropriate) and watch your arrows and chargesarrow_forwardCompound A is an alcohol that undergoes oxidation to produce compound B.Compound B is a ketone that gives positive triiodomethane reaction. Compound B isthen reacted with phenyl magnesium bromide, C6H5MgBr in the presence of aqueousacid to form compound C. Compound C has the molecular formula of C9H12O. Deducethe structure for compound A, B and C. PLEASE PROVIDE CLEAR DRAWINGS AND EXPLANATIONSarrow_forwardTell which of these transformations are oxidations and which are reductions based on whether there is addition or removal of O or H.arrow_forward
- A compound A, C7H12, was found to be optically active. On catalytic reduction over platinum catalyst, 2 equivalents of hydrogen were absorbed, yielding compound B, C7H16. On ozonolysis of A, two fragments were obtained. One fragment was identified as acetic acid. The other fragment, compound C, was an optically active carboxylic acid, C5H10O2. Write the reactions and draw structures for A, B and C.arrow_forward1. Compound2 may have an electrophilicreaction because of its saturation 2. Compound1 must undergo a catalytic reaction to be saturated Which is true? 1, 2, both, or nonearrow_forwardWhen the compound shown below undergoes acid-catalyzed dehydration, a ring expansionoccurs to give the fused-ring product. What type of intermediate is formed in this reaction?Explain the ring expansion in terms of the reaction mechanismarrow_forward
