1. Consider the oxidation of isoborneol (1) to camphor (2) using hypochlorous acid to an- swer the following questions. a. What is the oxidation number of the carbon atom bearing the alcohol functional group in 1? b. What is the oxidation number of this carbon atom in 2? c. What is reduced in this reaction, and what is it reduced to? d. Suggest a reagent other than bleach that would oxidize 1 into 2. 2. Would it be possible to convert camphor (2) to isoborneol (1)? If so, what type of reaction would this be and what reagent will you use? 3. Determine whether the conversion of iodide ion to iodine is an oxidation or a reduction.
