(a)
Interpretation:
Using G as a generic substituent, a substituted propane is to be drawn.

An
(b)
Interpretation:
Using G as a generic substituent, a substituted hexane is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
An alkane is said to be substituted if a hydrogen atom of the alkane is replaced by another atom or group of atoms. The atom or group of atoms which replaces the hydrogen atom is called a substituent. It is shown by G, which means a generic substituent.

- Draw the curved arrow mechanism for this reaction starting with 2-propanol in sulfuric acid. Show all nonzero formal charges and all nonbonded electrons in each step. Species not involved in a particular step do not need to be included in that step, and resonance forms do not need to be shown. Note that the alcohol is in much higher concentration than H₂O in this reaction. Harrow_forwardProvide reactions showing the following conversions: * see imagearrow_forward.
