An organic compound A of unknown structure was found to have a molecular formula C8H16. When A was poured in water and heated, compound B having a molecular formula C8H18O was formed. B upon heating with sulfuric acid was converted to C as the major product which is identical to A. Ozonolysis of C gave one molecule each of two different products D and E, both having a molecular formula C4H8O. Write the reactions involved and determine the structure of A,B,C,D and E.
Draw the structure of a compound of molecular formula C6H10 that reacts with H2 in the presence of Pd-C but does not react with H2 in the presence of Lindlar catalyst.
Give reasons :(a) n-Butyl bromide has higher boiling point than f-butyl bromide.(b) Racemic mixture is optically inactive.(c) The presence of nitro group (-NO2) at o/p positions increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution reactions.
