Acetylenic fatty acids are found in many tropical plants. Compound H, C18H2502, is one such compound; it absorbs 5 equivalents of H2 when treated
with H2 over a Pd/C catalyst. Ozonolysis of compound H produces the following products:
pentanal (CH3(CH2)3CHO)
2-охоасetic acid (HOOCCHO)
oxalic acid (HooccOOH)
nonanedioic acid (HOOC(CH2)7COOH)
Draw the structure of compound H.
• You do not have to consider stereochemistry.
• You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms.

Acid anhydrides are often used in place of acid chlorides because a less acidic carboxylic
acid, not the much stronger acid HCI, is the byproduct of the reaction. In the following
reaction of a carbohydrate derivative, acetic anhydride is used to obtain the product in
99% yield as a single stereoisomer. Note that the stereochemistry of the starting ano-
meric carbon is not indicated. Draw the product of the following transformation in a
chair form and show the single stereoisomer product of this transformation, which is
also the most stable possible chair species.

The a-bromination of carbonyl compounds by Br₂ in acetic acid is limited to aldehydes and ketones because acids, esters, and amides don't enolize to a sufficient extent. Carboxylic acids, however, can
be a-brominated by first converting the carboxylic acid to an acid bromide by treatment with PBr3. Following enolization of the acid bromide, Br2 reacts in an a-substitution reaction. Hydrolysis of the
acid bromide completes the reaction.
Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
