Interpretation:
The structures of A, B, and C are to be determined with the help of given information.
Concept introduction:
舧 Infrared spectroscopy is a simple, instrumental technique, which helps to determine the presence of various functional groups.
舧 It depends on the interactions of atoms or molecules with the
舧 The molecules that have dipole moment are IR active and the molecules that do not have dipole moment are IR inactive.
舧 Electrophiles are electron-deficient species, which has positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles, which accept electron pair.
舧 Nucleophiles are electron-rich species, which has negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles, which donate electron pair.
舧 Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon or a functional group is substituted by any other functional group is called substitution reaction.
舧 Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called elimination reaction.
舧 Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated molecules by the addition of molecules.
舧 The reaction in which there is addition of hydrogen molecule is called hydrogenation reaction.

- Cr(VI) compounds are common reagents for the oxidation of alcohols. Primary alcohols are oxidized to carboxylic acids and secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones. The mechanism involves a reaction similar to the E2 elimination, whereby a C=O double bond is formed with a reduced Cr(IV) compound as the leaving group.Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.arrow_forwardA chemist synthesized compound X as a racemic mixture. When the ketone group in X was enzymatically reduced to the corresponding alcohol, a 100% yield was obtained of the product shown below. Choose the statement that best describes this result. ОН enzyme C;H1 `OCH,CH; pH 4.0 C3H1 `OCH,CH3 ОН ÕH X (racemic) (100% yield) One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme. The other enantiomer of compound X is unreactive, but rapidly equilibrates with the reactive enantiomer under the reaction conditions. Since compound X was racemic, it makes sense that only a single product was obtained. O The product is a meso compound, so either enantiomer of compound X gives the same product. One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme, while the other enantiomer of compound X remains unchanged.arrow_forwardCompound A (C6H12O2) reacts with water, acid, and heatto yield compound B (C5H10O2) and compound C (CH4O).Compound B is acidic.
