When it is treated with sodium ethoxide in deuterated ethanol (C2H5OD), cyclopentadiene exchanges all of its hydrogens for deuterium.Draw a structure for the intermediate in this reaction with all protons (no deuterons). ### Transcription and Explanation#### Chemical ReactionThe image illustrates a chemical reaction involving the conversion of cyclopentadiene to a deuterated cyclopentadiene.- **Reactant:** Cyclopentadiene (C₅H₆) - Structure: A five-membered carbon ring with two conjugated double bonds (a diene) and one hydrogen atom attached to each carbon in the ring.- **Reagent:** Sodium ethoxide in deuterated ethanol (NaOC₂H₅/C₂H₅OD) - This reagent is used to exchange hydrogen atoms with deuterium atoms.- **Product:** Deuterated Cyclopentadiene (C₅D₆) - Structure: Similar five-membered carbon ring with two conjugated double bonds. Each hydrogen atom in the original compound is substituted with a deuterium atom, represented by "D".#### Reaction MechanismThe reaction involves the deprotonation of cyclopentadiene to form a cyclopentadienyl anion, followed by the exchange of hydrogen atoms for deuterium atoms due to the presence of NaOC₂H₅/C₂H₅OD.This reaction is an example of a deuterium exchange process, often used in organic chemistry to incorporate deuterium into molecules for studying reaction mechanisms or for use in spectroscopy.

The structure of given cyclopentadiene is depicted as follows: The chemical formula of the above…

When 4-penten-2-one is reacted with aqueous NaBH4 (sodium borohydride), the major substrate product will contain the following functional groups: alcohol only. alkene only. ketone only. alkene & alcohol. alkene & ketone, since no reaction occurs under these conditions.
Take 1-methylcyclohexene as the alkene and treat it with the reagent.
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.
Suppose you are told that each reaction is a substitution reaction but are not told the mechanism. Describe how you could conclude from the structure of the haloalkane, the nucleophile, and the solvent that each reaction is an SN2 reaction.
Compound X, C,4H12Br2, is optically inactive. On treatment with strong base, X gives hydrocarbon Y, C14H10: Compound Y absorbs 2 equivalents of hydrogen when reduced over a palladium catalyst to give z (C14H14) and reacts with ozone to give one product, benzoic acid (C,Hg02).
