15. In an abandoned laboratory has been found a flammable liquid, A, in a bottle bearing only the
label "Compound A: C,H₁₂2" Government agents have offered you a considerable sum to
determine the structure of this compound. After verifying the molecular formula by elemental
analysis, you find that Compound A reacts with 1 mol equiv of hydrogen; and, after treatment
with acidic KMnO4, Compound A gives the dicarboxylic acid C (see below). Another bottle
from the same laboratory is labeled "Compound B (isomer of A)." Compound B also reacts
with 1 mol equiv of hydrogen, but yields cyclohexanone after treatment with acidic KMnO4.
