- Name the following alcohol. O2-Bromo-4-ethylcyclopentanol 4-Ethyl-2-bromocyclopentanol O1-Ethyl-3-bromo-4-cyclopentanol O1-Bromo-4-ethyl-2-cyclopentanolarrow_forwardDraw the carbonyl products formed when each alcohol is oxidized with K 2Cr 2O 7.arrow_forwardSynthesize each compound, starting from benzene.arrow_forward
- Many insects utilize cyclic ketal structures as pheromones such as the structure shown below. The biosynthetic pathway involves the cyclization of this acetal from the straight chain structure. Draw the straight chain structure that could be used to form this acetal. Use wedges and dashes to correctly depict the stereochemistry. H3C- >arrow_forwardDraw the structure of the major organic product for the following reaction: Br 0 + N Harrow_forwardWhich of the following is an acetal? OCH3OCH₂CH₂OH O CH₂-CH-OH OH O O-CH3 CH;CH-O-CH O-CH3 CH₂ C-CH₂ CH3arrow_forward
- Terpineol has 5 isomers. Write their structures and describe why chemically (optically) they receive those names. Number the carbons for a better description.arrow_forwardAlkenes can be converted to alcohols by reaction with mercuric acetate to form a ß-hydroxyalkylmercury(II) acetate compound, a reaction called oxymercuration. Subsequent reduction with NaBH reduces the C-Hg bond to a C-H bond, forming the alkyl alcohol, a reaction called demercuration. Draw the structure of the Hg-containing compound and the final alcohol product formed in the reaction sequence. CH3 Hg(OOCCH3)2 NaBH4 HO™ Oxymercuration product Demercuration Product H₂O, THF Draw the alcohol product of demercuration. Draw the neutral product of oxymercuration. Omit byproducts. OH Hg Incorrectarrow_forwardWhat reagent is necessary to complete the reaction? CH3-CH2-CH-C-OH ? CHỊCH,CH C-0- Na* CH3 CH3 NaO O NaCl O Na O NaOH + H₂Oarrow_forward
