Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 47P
Dutch elm disease is caused by a fungus transmitted to elm trees by the elm bark beetle. The female beetle, when she has located an attractive elm tree, releases several pheromones, including multistriatin, below. These pheromones attract male beetles, which bring with them the deadly fungus.
Treating multistriatin with dilute aqueous acid at room temperature leads to the formation of a product,

- The compound p-methoxybenzonitrile N-oxide, which has the formula CH3OC6H4CNO, reacts with itself to form a dimer—a molecule that consists of two p-methoxybenzonitrile N-oxide units connected to each other (CH3OC6H4CNO)2. The reaction can be represented as A + A → B or 2 A → B where A represents p-methoxybenzonitrile N-oxide and B represents the dimer, (CH3OC6H4CNO)2.

- 13C NMR spectroscopy provides valuable information about the environments of a molecule's carbon atoms. Since carbon atoms are often connected to hydrogen atoms, which could split the carbon signal through spin-spin coupling, the coupling between C and H is often "turned off" through the use of broadband decoupling, causing each C signal to appear as a singlet. Draw an isomer of C5H11Cl that would be expected to have four resonances in its 13C NMR spectra.arrow_forwardThere are many organic acids and bases in our cells, and their presence modifies the pH of the fluids inside them.
