A hydrocarbon (a) was found to have the molecular formula C10H12. some results from chemical reactions are as follows:
1) when (a) was reacted with ozone in the presence of aqueous acetic acid and Zn, it gave two prodects (b) and (c)
both of these products yeilded yellow solids when reacted with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine in the presence of dilute HCL
What do these results tell you about (a), (b), (c)
2)when (b) was reacted with Tollens reagent, a silver mirrot formed on the walls of the test tube (positive result). THe compund (c) was a negative result. What do these results tell you about (b) (c)
3)When (b) was warmed with aqueous NaOH in the presence of iodine, yellow precip. of Chi3 formed. what does this indicate?
4) draw structure of (b)
5)(c) gave a positive iodoform rxn, also after idoform had been filtered off, benzoic acid precipitateed off. Draw (c)
6) (a) was one of 2 strucual formulas draw both
7) give acceptable (iupac) name for one of them
