- Following is the structural formula of Surfynol, a defoaming surfactant. Describe the synthesis of this compound from acetylene and a ketone. How many stereoisomers are possible for Surfynol?arrow_forwardRank the following hydrocarbons in order of decreasing rates of light-catalyzed bromination. Give the theoretical explanation for the order. Also, give the major bromination product for each.arrow_forwardExplain this observation: Ethyl 3-phenylpropanoate(C6H5CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3 ) reacts with electrophiles to afford ortho- and para-disubstituted arenes, but ethyl 3-phenylprop-2-enoate (C6H5CH=CHCO2CH2CH3) reacts with electrophiles to afford metadisubstituted arenes.arrow_forward
- Show how the following starting materials are converted to the given product by a series of two pericyclic reactions. Account for the observed stereochemistry.arrow_forwardTwo products are formed when methylenecyclohexane reacts with NBS? Show how each is formed. Disregard stereoisomers.arrow_forwardCompound A has molecular formula C7H15B.. Treatment of compound A with sodium ethoxide yields only one elimination product (compound B) and no substitution products. When compound B is treated with dilute sulfuric acid, compound C is obtained, which has molecular formula C7H160. Draw the structures of compounds A, B, and C.arrow_forward
- Treatment of compound A (C8H17Br) with NaOCH2CH3 affords two constitutional isomers B and C. Ozonolysis of B affords CH2=O and (CH3CH2CH2)2C=O. Ozonolysis of C affords CH3CH2CH2COCH3 and CH3CH2CHO. What is the structure of A?arrow_forwardTreatment of cis-4-bromocyclohexanol with HO– affords compound A and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. Treatment of trans-4- bromocyclohexanol under the same conditions forms compound B and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. A and B contain different functional groups and are not isomers of each other. Propose structures for A and B and offer an explanation for their formation.arrow_forwardWhat products are formed when the following compounds react with CH3MgBr, followed by the addition of dilute acid? Disregard stereoisomers.arrow_forward
- Oct-1-yne (HC≡CCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3) reacts rapidty with NaH, forming a gas that bubbles out of the reaction mixture, as one product. Oct-1-yne also reacts rapidty with CH3MgBr, and a different gas is produced. Write balanced equations for both reactions and identify the gases formed.arrow_forwardIdentify products A and B from the given 1H NMR data. Treatment of acetone [(CH3)2C=O] with dilute aqueous base forms B. Compound B exhibits four singlets in its 1H NMR spectrum at 1.3 (6 H), 2.2 (3 H), 2.5 (2 H), and 3.8 (1H) ppm. What is the structure of B?arrow_forwardWhat product(s) are formed in the following reaction. Indicate the proper stereochemistry of the product(s).arrow_forward
