When the reagent, Br2 in CCI4, (reddish-brown color), was added to Compound A of molecular formula C9H16, the reddish-brown color of the reagent changed to colorless, after the mixture was shaken. One mole of Compound A reacted with 1 mole of Hydrogen gas in the presence of Nickel catalyst to form a Compound B of molecular formula, C9H18. When the reagent, Br2 in CCI4, (reddish-brown color), was added to Compound B of molecular formula CoH18, the reddish-brown color of the reagent changed to colorless, after the mixture was shaken. Provide two possible structural formulas and corresponding IUPAC names of Compound A that will satisfy the above information. Provide a brief explanation for your answers.
