CCH H20, H2SO4 H9SO4 CH3 Alkynes do not react directly with aqueous acid as do alkenes, but will do so in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate as a Lewis acid catalyst. The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization.

Hydrocarbon A, C8H12 absorbs 3 equiv. of hydrogen to give B, C8H18 when hydrogenated over a Pd/C catalyst. Treatment of A with aqueous H2SO4 and Hg(II) gives a single ketone, C. Oxidation of A with KMnO4 gives CO2 and the two carboxylic acids D & E shown below. What would be a structure for A?

One compound that contributes to the “seashore smell” at beaches in Hawai‘i is dictyopterene D', a component of a brown edible seaweed called limu lipoa. Hydrogenation of dictyopterene D' with excess H2 in the presence of a Pd catalyst forms butylcycloheptane. Ozonolysis with O3 followed by (CH3)2S forms CH2(CHO)2, HCOCH2CH(CHO)2, and CH3CH2CHO. What are possible structures of dictyopterene D'?

Hydrocarbon A has the formula C9H12 and absorbs 3 equivalents of H2 to yield B, C9H18, when hydrogenated over a Pd/C catalyst. On treatment of A with aqueous H2SO4 in the presence of mercury(II), two isomeric ketones, C and D, are produced . Oxidation of A with KMnO4 gives a mixture of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and the tricarboxylic acid E. Propose structures for compounds A-D, and write the reactions.

Like other electrophiles, carbocations add to alkenes to form new carbocations, which can then undergo substitution or elimination reactions depending on the reaction conditions. With this in mind, consider the following reactions of nerol, a natural product isolated from lemon grass and other plant sources. Treatment of nerol with TsOH forms α-terpineol as the major product, whereas treatment of nerol with chlorosulfonic acid, HSO3Cl, forms a constitutional isomer, α-cyclogeraniol. Write stepwise mechanisms for both processes. Each mechanism involves the addition of an electrophile—a carbocation—to a double bond.
