(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the given compound is terpene.

Interpretation: If the given compound is terpene is to be stated.

Concept introduction: An isoprene unit is bunched of five-carbon atoms. In terpenes, the isoprene units are connected to each other in head to tail fashion. The head part of an isoprene unit is branched, whereas the tail part of an isoprene unit is un-branched.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the given compound is aromatic.

Interpretation: If the given compound is terpene is to be stated.

Concept introduction: A compound is said to be aromatic when it follows (4n+2)π rule or its π-electrons are in conjugation with each other.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The products that results from the saponification of given compounds with aqNaOH.

Interpretation: The products that results from the saponification of given compounds with aqNaOH are to be stated.

Concept introduction: The formation of ester molecule from carboxylic acid and alcohol is known as esterification. The reverse of esterification is known as hydrolysis or saponification.

A student proposes the transformation below in one step of an organic synthesis. There may be one or more reactants missing from the left-hand side, but there are no products missing from the right-hand side. There may also be catalysts, small inorganic reagents, and other important reaction conditions missing from the arrow. • Is the student's transformation possible? If not, check the box under the drawing area. . If the student's transformation is possible, then complete the reaction by adding any missing reactants to the left-hand side, and adding required catalysts, inorganic reagents, or other important reaction conditions above and below the arrow. • You do not need to balance the reaction, but be sure every important organic reactant or product is shown. + T X O O лет-ле HO OH HO OH This transformation can't be done in one step.
