Compound A, C₁1 H160, was found to be an optically active alcohol. Despite its apparent unsaturation, no hydrogen was absorbed on catalytic reduction over a Pd/C catalyst. On treatment of A with dilute H₂SO4, dehydration occurred and an optically inactive alkene B, C₁₁H₁4 was produced as the major product. Alkene B, on ozonolysis, gave two products. Product C, C7H6O, was shown to be an aldehyde while product D, C4H8O, was shown to be a ketone. Draw the structure of compound C. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.

(A) Syl reactions are stepwise and have intermediates. (B) The slow step in a Sy1 reaction is formation of the carbocation intermediate. (C) Sx1 reactions have first order kinetics which means only the alkyl halide is involved in the rate limiting step. (D) The products of a Sy1 reaction will be a pair of enantiomers.
