Concept introduction:

Addition reactions are the chemical reactions that show the addition of a certain group or molecule to the unsaturated carbon atoms. Some examples of addition reactions are acid-catalyzed hydration, hydroboration-oxidation, oxymercuration-demercuration, etc. Hydroboration-oxidation is a hydration reaction of alkene.

Compound X has molecular formula C5H10. In the presence of a metal catalyst, compound X reacts with one equivalent of molecular hydrogen to yield 2-methylbutane. (1) Suggest three possible structures for compound X. (2) Hydroboration-oxidation of compound X yields a product with no chirality centers. Identify the structure of compound X.
Reaction of (CH3)3CH with Cl2 forms two products: (CH3)2CHCH2Cl (63%) and (CH3)3CCl (37%). Why is the major product formed by cleavage of the stronger 1° C–H bond?
Compound W has molecular formula C₁4H18 and reacts with H₂ to form X. Oxidative cleavage of W with O3 followed by CH3 SCH3 affords Y. What is the structure of W?
