Concept explainers
(a)
To draw: The structure of the isomer A and B.
Interpretation: The structure of the isomer A and B is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Isomers is defined as the molecules which has the same molecular formula, but different structure representations. The number of atoms is same, but the atomic arrangement is different for each molecule.
(b)
To determine: The reason that compoundA is the major product when using sodium hydroxide as the base, whereas compound B is the major product when using potassium tert-butoxide as the base.
Interpretation: The reason that compound A is the major product when using sodium hydroxide as the base, whereas compound B is the major product when using potassium tert-butoxide as the base are to be stated.
Concept introduction: Isomers is defined as the molecules which has the same molecular formula, but different structure representations. The number of atoms is same, but the atomic arrangement is different for each molecule.

- Treatment of cis-4-bromocyclohexanol with HO− affords compound Aand cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. Treatment of trans-4-bromocyclohexanol under the same conditions forms compound B and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol. A and Bcontain different functional groups and are not isomers of each other.Propose structures for A and B and offer an explanation for theirformation.arrow_forwardPh Ph CH3 CH3 The Wolff-Kishner reaction involves the reaction of an aldehyde/ketone with hydrazine in the presence of KOH. The process is useful for converting an aldehyde or ketone into an alkane. The reaction involves formation of a hydrazone, followed by base-catalyzed double-bond migration, loss of N₂ gas to give a carbanion, and protonation to give the alkane. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
