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.

Chapter 16, Problem 47P, Dutch elm disease is caused by a fungus transmitted to elm trees by the elm bark beetle. The female

Treating multistriatin with dilute aqueous acid at room temperature leads to the formation of a product, C 10 H 20 O 3 , which shows a strong infrared peak near 1715   c m 1 . Propose a structure for this product.

explain the uses of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1H NMR) and nuclear magnetic resonance of carbon thirteen (¹³C NMR) and briefly explain the information that can be obtained from their spectra.
The naphthalene molecule has a structure that corre- sponds to two benzene molecules fused together: The ™ electrons in this molecule are delocalized over the entire molecule. The wavelength of maximum absorption in benzene is 255 nm. Will the corresponding wavelength in naphthalene be shorter or longer than 255 nm?
Ants emit tiny amounts of chemicals called alarm pheromones to warn other ants (of the same species) of the presence of an enemy. Several of the components of the pheromone in one species have been identified, and two of their structures follow. Which compound has the infrared spectrum shown? -0 -O Citral Citronellal 12025 1720 cm"1 2. The main constituent of cinnamon oil has the formula C9H8O. From the following infrared spectrum, deduce the structure of this component. 1677 cm 1200 1000 3. The infrared spectra of cis- and trans-3-hexen-1-ol follow. Assign a structure to each spectrum.
