Compound X, C,4H12Br2, is optically inactive. On treatment with strong base, X gives hydrocarbon Y, C14H10: Compound Y absorbs 2 equivalents of
hydrogen when reduced over a palladium catalyst to give z (C14H14) and reacts with ozone to give one product, benzoic acid (C,Hg02). Draw the
structure of compound Z.
• Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists.
• Ignore alkene stereochemistry.
• If more than one structure fits the description, draw them all.
• Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner.
• Separate structures with + signs from the drop-down menu.
