Chemistry - Carbonyl compounds Question with Solution | TestHub
On complete hydrogenation with gives 1-Isopropyl -4-methylcyclohexane. On reductive ozonolysis of produces only two organic products, acetone along with product .
( NOTE: No “SP” carbon present in the structure of (X))
Find total number of possible (X)?
Answer:
Solution:
Explain Question:
Find total number of possible (X)?
Concept:
ozonolysis and degree of unsaturation Solution:
The total number of possible structures for compound is 4. The complete hydrogenation product is 1-isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexane. This indicates that the basic carbon skeleton of is a cyclohexane ring with an isopropyl and a methyl group attached at positions 1 and 4.
Reductive ozonolysis of ( X ) yields only two organic products: acetone and product ( P ). This indicates a double bond between propyl and ring The degree of unsaturation (DU) of (X) is 2 or 3, and it has no carbons.
The fact that only two products are formed means the molecule of must be symmetrical in a way that the cleaved fragments are identical or one is acetone and the other is a single dicarbonyl P .
only 2 structures are possible with type isomers making a total of 4 .
Final answer: 4
