- The action of heating one mole of water (containing a trace of acid catalyst) on one mole of compound Y produces one mole of CH,COOH and one mole of CH, CH,NH, The structure of Y is: Select one: O CHCNCCH, CH,CH,NHCH,CH, OH CH CHNHCH,CH, O CHCH,CNHCH; O CH;CH NHÖCH;arrow_forwardWrite the reagent or draw structures of the starting material or organic product(s) in the following reactions. If more than one product is formed, identify the major product where possible. (a) (b) HO OH OH H2SO4 ? Cl₂ ? FeCl3arrow_forwardDraw the structure of an alkane with molecular formula C7H16 that contains (a) one 4° carbon; (b) only 1° and 2° carbons; (c) 1°, 2°, and 3° hydrogens.arrow_forward
- Draw the product formed when (CH3CH2)3N:, a Lewis base, reacts with each Lewis acid: (a) B(CH3)3; (b) (CH3)3C+; (c) AlCl3.arrow_forwardA compound with formula C7H12O is treated with sodium borohydride in methanol to yield 2,2-dimethylcylopentanol. Write a reaction scheme showing the structures of the reactant, the reagents, and the product. Will the product be optically active? Explain.arrow_forwardSynthesize each compound from benzonitrile (C6H5CN) as the only organic starting material; that is, every carbon in the product must originate in benzonitrile.arrow_forward
- Give an IUPAC and common name for each of the following naturally occurring carboxylic acids: (a) CH3CH(OH)CO2H (lactic acid); (b) HOCH2CH2C(OH)(CH3)CH2CO2H (mevalonic acid).arrow_forwardName and draw the products of each reaction. 1-propanol + hydrobromic acid → (a) (b) 1-pentanol H-SO A (c) N-propylmethanamide + water (d) 3-methyl oct-2-ene + hydrochloric acid -arrow_forwardCompounds A and B are isomers of the molecular formula CyH19Br. Both yield the same alkene Cin an elimination reaction. Hydrogenation of C yields the product 2,3,3,4 tetramethyl pentane. What are the structures of A, B, and C?arrow_forward
- Which products are formed when hydrobromic acid is added to (a) trans-2-hexene, (b) 2-methyl- 2-pentene, and (c) 4-methylcyclohexene, and how many regioisomers can be formed in each case?arrow_forward4 But-2-enal, CH₂CH=CHCHO, is a pale yellow, flammable liquid with an irritating odour. (a) But-2-enal exists as two stereoisomers. Draw skeletal formulae to show the structure of the two stereoisomers of but-2-enal. (b) (i) Describe a simple chemical test that would show that but-2-enal is an aldehyde. (ii) Explain why this test gives a different result with aldehydes than it does with keton (c) But-2-enal also reacts with sodium borohydride, NaBH4. (i) Identify the organic compound formed in this reaction. (ii) State the type of chemical reaction occurring. (d) Precautions must be taken to prevent but-2-enal catching fire. Construct a balanced equation for the complete combustion of but-2-enal, C₂HO.arrow_forwardDraw a structural formula of an alkene that undergoes acid-catalyzed hydration to give each alcohol as the major product (more than one alkene may give each alcohol as the major product). (a) 3-Hexanol (b) 1-Methylcyclobutanol (c) 2-Methyl-2-butanol (d) 2-Propanolarrow_forward
