Predict the structure of the dinphenylpuinone product, C28H40O2, formed by the Oxidative coupling of 2, 6-di-tert-butyphenol with oxygen in the presence of base.
Naphthalene is the simplest of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and can be represented by three resonance structures. Draw them. Indicate which of the structures are equivalent.
When acetophenone amide was allowed to rearrange in 18Oenriched solvent, the amide product contained the same percent of 18O as the solvent. Explain this observation.
Draw the structures for the two possible mono enols of 1, 3-cyclohexanedion.
