Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The number of rings and number of pi bonds in A is to be determined. And one possible structure is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Degree of unsaturation is used to determine the total number of rings and pi bonds present in compound by just looking at the molecular formula. It does not specify the total number of rings and total number of pi bonds individually.
(b)
Interpretation: The number of rings and number of pi bonds in B is to be determined. And one possible structure is to be drawn.

- 3arrow_forwardBreak compound A into several small (less or equals to 6 carbon atom) molecules. You need to explain the reasons why you choose to break those bonds.arrow_forwardCompound A has molecular formula C7H15B.. Treatment of compound A with sodium ethoxide yields only one elimination product (compound B) and no substitution products. When compound B is treated with dilute sulfuric acid, compound C is obtained, which has molecular formula C7H160. Draw the structures of compounds A, B, and C.arrow_forward
- 7.arrow_forwardAn ion with a positively charged nitrogen atom in a three-membered ring is called an aziridinium ion. The following aziridinium ion reacts with sodiummethoxide to form compounds A and B: If a small amount of aqueous Br2 is added to A, the reddish color of Br2 persists, but the color disappears when Br2 is added to B. When the aziridinium ion reacts with methanol, only A is formed. Identify A and B.arrow_forwardwhich molecule contains no aromatic rings?arrow_forward
