Question
Chapter 3, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Structure of octane and isooctane should be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Any organic molecule can be named by using certain rules given by IUPAC (International Union for Pure and applied chemistry). IUPAC name consists of three parts in major namely Prefix suffix and root word
Prefix represents the substituent present in the molecule and its position in the root name.
Suffix denotes the presence of
Root word represents the longest continuous carbon skeleton of the organic molecule.

Calculate the proton and carbon chemical shifts for this structure
A.
B.
b. Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion
and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive
compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts
rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other
compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a
stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more
stable molecule, and why?
Where are the chiral centers in this molecule? Also is this compound meso yes or no?
