Chapter 9, Problem 9.38SP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The structure of  compound X is to be proposed along with uncertainty in the structure.

Concept introduction: The notations EorZ are used to describe the geometry around the double bond of an alkene, whereas nomenclature cis or trans is used to describe the relative configurations (RorS). In the cis or trans compound, the molecular formula remains same, but arrangement of the atoms in space is different. Cis or trans and EorZ are not interrelated to each other.

To determine: The structure for compound X and uncertainty in the structure.

An optically active monoterpene (compound A) with molecular formula C10H18O undergoes catalytic hydrogenation to form an optically inactive compound with molecular formula C10H20O (compound B). When compound B is heated with acid, followed by reaction with O3 and then with dimethyl sulfide, one of the products obtained is 4-methylcyclohexanone. Give possible structures for compounds A and B.
Nitromethane is reacted with ethyl prop-2-enoate with EtO-Na+, EtOH 3 equivalents to give the product X(C16). X then reacts with H2/Raney Ni to give the product Y(C14), which in turn reacts with Na to give Z (C12). Indicate which products X, Y and Z are.
5. Compound A, C 10H 18O, undergoes reaction with dilute H 2SO 4 at 50 °C to yield a mixture of two alkenes, C 10H 16.  The major alkene B, gives only cyclopentanone after ozone treatment followed by reduction with zinc in acetic acid.  Which of the following reactions are correct.
