4. Propose a Synthesis for the molecule below. You may use any starting materials containing 6
carbons or less (reagents that aren't incorporated into the final molecule such as PhзP do not
count towards this total, and the starting material can have whatever non-carbon functional
groups you want), and any of the reactions you have learned so far in organic chemistry I, II, and
III. Your final answer should show each step separately, with intermediates and conditions clearly
drawn.

- Hydrogen bonding in water plays a key role in its physical properties. Assume that the energy required to break a hydrogen bond is approximately 8 kJ/mol. Consider a simplified two-state model where a "formed" hydrogen bond is in the ground state and a "broken" bond is in the excited state. Using this model: • Calculate the fraction of broken hydrogen bonds at T = 300 K, and also at T = 273 K and T = 373 K. • At what temperature would approximately 50% of the hydrogen bonds be broken? • What does your result imply about the accuracy or limitations of the two-state model in describing hydrogen bonding in water?
