Hydrocarbon A has the formula CgH12 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 O3 gives a mixture of acetaldehyde (CH3COH) and the trialdehyde shown below. Propose structures for compounds A-D. CH CHO OCHCH,CHCH,CHO

Prostaglandins are a class of eicosanoids, fatty acid derivatives involved in a variety of important phenomena, including fever, inflammation, and pain. The first step in prostaglandin synthesis involves the conversion of the 20-carbon fatty acid arachidonic acid to PGG2 by the enzyme prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase, or cyclooxy: Ibuprofen is one of several inhibitors of cyclooxogenase used therapeutically.

NAC↔X™ Ph Ph OH Acid chlorides react with Grignard reagents to yield tertiary alcohols, two equivalents of Grignard reagent are required. The first equivalent reacts in a typical nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction to give a ketone. This ketone, however, is itself reactive in the Grignard reaction. Thus, the second equivalent adds to the ketone carbonyl carbon. Subsequent protonation yields the tertiary alcohol. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
