(a) Draw two different enol tautomers of 2-methylcyclohexanone. (b) Draw two constitutional isomers that are not tautomers, but contain a C=C and an OH group. 2-methylcyclohexanone
Consider the tricyclic structure A. (a) Label each substituent on the rings as axial or equatorial. (b) Draw a skeletal structure for A, using wedges and dashes to show whether the substituents are located above or below the rings.
