Compound 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.
A common illicit synthesis of methamphetamine involves an interesting variation of the Birch reduction. A solution of ephedrine in alcohol is added to liquid ammonia, followed by several pieces of lithium metal. The Birch reduction usually reduces the aromatic ring, but in this case it eliminates the hydroxy group of ephedrine to give methamphetamine. Propose a mechanism, similar to that for the Birch reduction, to explain this unusual course of the reaction.
Identify products A and B from the given 1H NMR data.
Treatment of acetone [(CH3)2C=O] with dilute aqueous base forms B. Compound B exhibits four singlets in its 1H NMR spectrum at 1.3 (6 H), 2.2 (3 H), 2.5 (2 H), and 3.8 (1H) ppm. What is the structure of B?

Considering the functional groups present in G and the nature of the reactions involved, what are the most probable structures or functional groups present in products I and J? A. I contains a carboxylic acid group, and J contains an aldehyde group. B. I contains a ketone group, and J contains an alcohol group. C. I and J both contain aldehyde groups. D.
