Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.63P
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
Individual isoprene units in the given compound are to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Isoprene unit is a five carbon unit with an isopropyl group at one end.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the given molecule is derived from a monoterpene, sesquiterpene, diterpene, etc. is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Terpenes contain a number of isoprene units. Depending on the number of isoprene units, terpenes are classified as monoterpenes containing two isoprene units, sesquiterpenes containing three isoprene units, diterpenes containing four isoprene units, and so on.
