On heating with aqueous acid, 2,2-dimethyl-2,3-butanediol (pinacol) rearranges to 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone (pinacolone): HO OH H₂C-C-C-CH3 CH3 H₂O* C-C-CH3 + H₂O H3C CH3 H₂C CH3 pinacol pinacolone Draw structural formulas for the two carbocation intermediates in this reaction. . You do not have to consider stereochemistry. Do not include counter-ions, e.g., Na+, I, in your answer. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate structures using the sign from the drop-down menu.
