Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The unimolecular dissociation of the last intermediate in the oxidation of citronellol is to be described using curved arrows. The sulfur containing product formed in the reaction is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Curved arrows are used to show the movement of bonding and/or lone pair of electrons in a mechanism forming the desired or expected transition state, intermediate, or product.

The curved arrow starts at the bond or lone pair and ends at the atom as a lone pair or between two atoms forming a new bond.

Triphenylmethanol is insoluble in water, but when it is treated with concentrated sulfuric acid, a bright yellow solution results. As this yellow solution is diluted with water, its color disappears and a precipitate of triphenylmethanol reappears. Suggest a structure for the bright yellow species, and explain this unusual behavior.
