A little confused

I have already tried this problem and offered an explanation of why I think it should be. Please help me and if wrong could you offer some help or an explanation.

Deduce the structure and give the name.

I am pretty sure that I have figured out the problem, just one peice is stumping me. Do you think that you can help me figure out the structure and name. What I have may possibly be right. Question: Analyze the data given in each of the problems below, deduce the structure and give the name. A fishy-smelling liquid with ...continues

O. Chem.

Will an acid-base reaction with an equilibrium lying to the right place if Na(+) A(-)is added to HB? (HB has a pka = 10):if it's needed to answer the question.

Tetrahydrofuran + Hydroiodic Acid

What product(s) would you expect to form when tetrahydrofuran is treated with excess hydroiodic acid (HI)?

Cleavage of Butyl Isopropyl Ether with HI

Write a suitable mechanism for the cleavage of butyl isopropyl ether with HI at 100 degrees C to form exclusively isopropyl alcohol and 1-iodobutane. Explain why butyl alcohol and isopropyl iodide are not formed in the reaction.

Name the product

Phthalimide has a Ka of 5 x 10^-9. Write an equation for the reaction of phthalimide with potassium amide (a strong base) in N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) solvent. Name the product.

Preparing alcohols from aldehydes or ketones

What aldehyde or ketone would you reduce to prepare the following alcohols? 1) Benzyl alcohol 2) 3,3-Dimethyl-2-butanol 3) 2,2-Dimethyl-1-pentanol

E and Z stereoisomers

The stereochemistry of the more highly substituted alkenes is difficult to define using the cis and trans designations. Therefore, a more systematic manner of indicating stereochemistry in these systems has been developed that uses an E and Z nomenclature. Draw the structures of the E and Z stereoisomers of 1,4-diphenyl-2-butene ...continues

Gas Chromatogram

Please refer to the attachments provided. When I did the gas chromatogram, I made a careless mistake, by not labeling the printout(A-D); A-C the 3 distillation fractions and D the undistilled residue. On the 1st printout w/ 4 peaks, I know that the highest peak is A and on the printout w/ two peaks I think the peak on the rt ...continues
