Chapter FRP, Problem 21P

An alkane (A) with the formula C 6 H 14 reacts with chlorine to yield three compounds with the formula C 6 H 13 C l ; B, C, and D. Of these only C and D undergo dehydrohalogenation with sodium ethoxide in ethanol to produce an alkene. Moreover C and D yield the same alkene E ( C 6 H 12 ) . Hydrogenation of E produces A. Treating E with HCl produces a compound (F) that is an isomer of B, C, and D. Treating F with magnesium in dry ether followed by aqueous acid gives a compound (G) that is isomeric with A. Propose structures for A-G.

Compound A has molecular formula C4H10. Compound A gives two monochlorides, B and C, on photochemical chlorination. Treatment of either of these monochlorides with potassium tert-butoxide gives the same alkene (C4H8) as the product, but B leads to just one isomer of the alkene, D, whereas C gives D and another isomer of the alkene, E. Treatment of monochlorides B and C with aqueous ethanol gives products F and G, respectively, both of which are of molecular formula C4H100. What are the chemical names of compounds A-G?
Hydrocarbon X has the formula C6H12.X reacts with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form a product having 12 primary hydrogens.Treatment of X with ozone followed by zinc in aqueous acid gives a mixture two aldehydes.What is the structure of X?
4. Compound A has the formula C 8H 8.  It reacts rapidly with KMnO 4 to give CO 2 and a carboxylic acid, B (C 7H 6O 2), but reacts with only 1 molar equivalent of H 2 on catalytic hydrogenation over a palladium catalyst.  On hydrogenation under conditions that reduce aromatic rings, 4, equivalents of H 2 are taken up and hydrocarbon C (C 8H 16) is produced.  What are the structures of A, B, and C.
