The image illustrates a reaction sequence involving cyclopentene derivatives. 1. **First Structure (Left):** - A cyclopentene ring (a five-membered ring with one double bond). - An arrow is pointing upwards indicating the addition of a reagent. 2. **Reaction Conditions:** - The arrow labeled “RCOOH” indicates the addition of a carboxylic acid. - The product is a cyclopentyl ester derivative. 3. **Second Structure (Middle):** - A cyclopentyl ring with an ester functional group attached. - The structure transitions through another arrow to the final product. 4. **Final Conditions:** - The arrow labeled “H₃O⁺” indicates an acid-catalyzed reaction, often implying hydration. 5. **Final Structure (Top):** - A cyclopentane ring with two hydroxyl (OH) groups attached, indicating diol formation. This reaction sequence demonstrates the transformation of cyclopentene into a cyclopentane diol through an intermediate ester, illustrating concepts in organic synthesis such as hydrolysis and hydration.
