Chapter 9.SE, Problem 54AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Hydrocarbon A(C9H12) absorbs 3 equivalents of H2 in the presence of Pd/C to yield B(C9H18). A when treated with aqueous H2SO4 in the presence of Hg(II) gives two isomeric ketones C and D. A upon oxidation with KMnO4 gives a mixture of acetic acid and tricarboxylic acid E. Based on these data, structures for the compounds A-D are to be given and the reactions are to be written.

Concept introduction:

The degree of unsaturation can be calculated by comparing the molecular formula of compound given with that of its parent hydrocarbon. Both alkenes and alkynes yield alkanes by adsorbing H2 in the presence of Pd catalyst. Alkynes require two equivalents of H2 while alkenes require one equivalent of H2 to give alkanes. Internal alkynes will yield a mixture of isomeric ketones when treated with aqueous H2SO4 in the presence of mercury (II) if they are symmetrically substituted. When oxidized with KMnO4, monosubstituted carbons in both double and triple bonds get oxidized to carboxylic acids.

To give:

Based on the data given, the structures of A-D and to write the reactions.

Hi!! Please provide a solution that is handwritten. Ensure all figures, reaction mechanisms (with arrows and lone pairs please!!), and structures are clearly drawn to illustrate the synthesis of the product as per the standards of a third year organic chemistry course. ****the solution must include all steps, mechanisms, and intermediate structures as required. Please hand-draw the mechanisms and structures to support your explanation. Don’t give me AI-generated diagrams or text-based explanations, no wordy explanations on how to draw the structures I need help with the exact mechanism hand drawn by you!!!    I am reposting this—ensure all parts of the question are straightforward and clear or please let another expert handle it thanks!!
