Interpretation:
Erythrogenic acid, C18H26O2, an acetylenic fatty acid turns vivid red on exposure to light. It absorbs 5 equivalents of H2 in the presence of Pd to give stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16COOH.Upon ozonolysis it gives formaldehyde, CH2O; oxalic acid, HOOCCOOH; azelaic acid, HOOC(CH2)7COOH; and an aldehydic acid OHC(CH2)4COOH. From these data, two possible structures for Erythrogenic acid are to be given. A way to distinguish these two structures is also to be given.
