Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 37P
15-41 Compound A(C5Hh, is not optically active and cannot be separated into enantiomers. It reacts with bromine in carbon tetrachloride to discharge the purple color of bromine and form Compound B( C.FL Br,). When Compound A is treated with H., in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, it is converted to compound C(C5H10). When treated with HC1, compound A is converted to compound DtC.HyCl). Given this information, propose structural formulas for compounds A B, C, and D. Hint: There are at least three possibilities for Compound A and, in turn, three possibilities for Compounds B. C, and D.

with 2-methylpropene in the presence of phosphoric acid.
a) What is the structure of BHT ?
b) Account for the regioselectivity of tert-butyl group substitution in the synthesis of BHT.
c) Propose a mechanism to explain the formation of the electrophile in the synthesis of BHT.
A chiral amine A having the R configuration undergoes Hofmann elimination to form an alkene B as the major product. B is oxidatively cleaved with ozone, followed by CH3SCH3, to form CH2 = O and CH3CH2CH2CHO. What are the structures of A and B?
Compound A is a derivative of the carbohydrate perosamine, which is found in the antibiotic perimycin. When A is treated with acetic anhydride in methanol, a monoacyl derivative B (C9H17NO5) is obtained in 73% yield. What is the structure of compound B?
