Compound A, CH10, 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 H,SO, dehydration occurred and an optically inactive alkene B, CH4 was produced as the major product. Alkene B, on ozonolysis, gave two products. Product C, C,H,0, was shown to be an aldehyde while product D, CHg0, 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, jtust draw one.
A chemist synthesized compound X as a racemic mixture. When the ketone group in X was enzymatically reduced to the corresponding alcohol, a 100% yield was obtained of the product shown below. Choose the statement that best describes this result. ОН enzyme C;H1 `OCH,CH; pH 4.0 C3H1 `OCH,CH3 ОН ÕH X (racemic) (100% yield) One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme. The other enantiomer of compound X is unreactive, but rapidly equilibrates with the reactive enantiomer under the reaction conditions. Since compound X was racemic, it makes sense that only a single product was obtained. O The product is a meso compound, so either enantiomer of compound X gives the same product. One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme, while the other enantiomer of compound X remains unchanged.
