Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Structural formula of lycopene has to be drawn showing the two sets of four isoprene units linked to form lycopene.
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
(b)
Interpretation:
Number of double in lycopene that has a possibility of cis, trans isomerism has to be given and the double bond that shows cis and that shows trans isomers has to be identified.
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
Alkene:
- • Trans configuration: In trans configuration, carbon atoms present in the main chain are placed on opposite sides of the carbon-carbon double bond.
- • Cis configuration: In cis configuration, carbon atoms present in the main chain are placed on same sides of the carbon-carbon double bond.

- The terpinenes are compounds with the formula C₁0H16 which can be extracted from various plant sources like marjoram oils. They are commonly used in the fragrance industry or to scent cleaning fluids. A chemist reacted an unknown terpinene with ozone and analyzed the products to determine the structure of the original terpinene based on the reaction: 1) 03 2) (CH3)2S Analysis showed that these products were the only compounds formed from the reaction: unknown terpinene H + XXXa products What was the structure of the original terpinene?arrow_forwardA 2-bromobutane react with methanol and form a enantiomeric pair of 2-methoxybutane.
