Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Structural formula of vitamin A has to be drawn showing the four isoprene units linked by head-to-tail and cross-linked at one point forming vitamin A.
Concept Introduction:
Terpenes are made by joining five-carbon units, usually in a head to tail-fashion.
Isoprene unit:
Branched end of isoprene – Head
Unbranched end of isoprene - Tail
Cross-link is a type of bond that links

Compounds X and Y both have the formula C7H₁4.
Both X and Y react with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2-methylhexane.
The heat of hydrogenation of X is greater than that of Y.
Both X and Y react with HCI to give the same single C7H15Cl compound as the major product.
What is the structure of X?

DHA is a fatty acid derived from sh oil and an abundant fatty acid in vertebrate brains. Hydrogenation of DHA forms docosanoic acid [CH3(CH2)20CO2H] and ozonolysis forms CH3CH2CHO, CH2(CHO)2 (ve equivalents), and HCOCH2CH2CO2H. What is the structure of DHA if all double bonds have the Z conguration?
