Sharpless epoxidation of allylic alcohol X forms compound Y. Treatment of Y with NaOH and C6H5SH in an alcohol–water mixture forms Z. Identify the structure of Y and draw a mechanism for the conversion of Y to Z. Account for the stereochemistry of the stereogenic centers in Z. Z has been used as an intermediate in the synthesis of chiral carbohydrates.
Treatment of a hydrocarbon A (molecular formula C9H18) with Br2 in the presence of light forms alkyl halides B and C, both having molecular formula C9H17Br. Reaction of either B or C with KOC(CH3)3 forms compound D (C9H16) as the major product. Ozonolysis of D forms cyclohexanone and acetone. Identify the structures of A–D.
A certain compound of molecular formula C19H38 was isolated from fish oil and from plankton. On hydrogenation it gave 2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane. Ozonolysis gave (CH3)2C O and a 16-carbon aldehyde. What is the structure of the natural product? What is the structure of the aldehyde?
