Step by step solution

01

Step-by-Step SolutionStep 1: Counting the elements of unsaturation

Each pi-bond has one element of unsaturation and each ring has one element of unsaturation. The pi- bond comprises of one double bond and the triple bond comprises of two double bonds.

02

Step 2: Structures of given compounds

The structures of cicutoxin, capillin, and panaxytriol are represented as:

  • Cicutoxin has 2 triple bonds + 3 double bonds = 5 elements of unsaturation.


Cicutoxin


  • Capillin has 2 triple bonds and one ring = 4 elements of unsaturation.


Capillin

  • Panaxytriol ha 3 triple bond and one double bond = 4 element of unsaturation.


Panaxytriol

03

The structural formula of alkynes

The two structural formulas for C5H8are:

CH3−C≡C−CH2−CH3

Deduce the structure of each compound from the information given. All unknown in this problem have molecular formula C8H12.

(a)Upon catalytic hydrogenation, unknown Wgives cyclooctane. Ozonolysis of W,followed by reduction with dimethylsulfide, gives octanedioic acid,HOOC-(CH2) 6-COOH . Draw the structure of W.

(b)Upon catalytic hydrogenation, unknown Xgives cyclooctane. Ozonolysis of X,followed by reduction with dimethyl sulfide, gives two equivalents of butanedial , O =CH -CH2 CH 2-CH = O. Draw the structure of X.
