Chapter 20, Problem 46P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The hexose obtained after three successive Killiani-Fisher synthesis of (+)-glyceraldehyde is to be predicted on the basis of given information.

Concept Introduction:

In Killiani-Fisher synthesis, hydrogen cyanide attacks the carbonyl group.  The carbonyl carbon is converted to an asymmetric center.  The CN bond is reduced to an imine which is partially deactivated by palladium catalyst to prevent the reduction of imine to an amine.  The two imines are hydrolyzed to two aldoses.

One suggestion for solving the fuel shortage due to decreasing volumes of fossil fuels are hydrogen / oxygen fuel cells. a. State the two half-cell reaction equations for such fuel cells. Calculate the cell potential as well as the electrical work gained by this fuel cell at standard conditions with E002/H20 = 1.229 V. b. Compare the fuel cell to the Gibbs free energy of the combustion reaction of n-octane at standard conditions. Use ASºm, n-Oct., 1 = 361.2 J/mol K.
