Done my homework it needs double checked ;)
« on: November 25, 2011, 12:58:01 PM »
Find the isomer alkenes A,B,C,D,E with the molecular formula C6H12, knowing their behavior with K2Cr2O7 and H2SO4(Oxidation), and write the equations.
A)The A isomer forms threw oxidation 1 cetone.
A = 2 ethyl 1 butene
B) B and C isomers form threw oxidation 1 single acid.
B = 1 hexene
C = 2 hexene
C)The isomer D form threw oxidation:1 acetone, and 1 acid.
D = 2 emthyl 2 pentene
D)The isomer E form threw oxidation: CO2, H20 and the acid 2,2 dimethylpropane
E = 3,3 dimethyl 1 butene.

I think i made it good ;)

"Threw" is the past participle of the verb "to throw" - the word you are looking for is "through", which is pronounced the same way.

Anyway, to business...

A)The A isomer forms threw oxidation 1 cetone.
A = 2 ethyl 1 butene

By "cetone", do you mean "acetone"?

2-ethyl-1-butene yould give pentan-3-one and CO2 as products - no acetone would be produced at all.

B) B and C isomers form threw oxidation 1 single acid.
B = 1 hexene
C = 2 hexene

1-hexene would give pentanoic acid and CO2.
2-hexene would give butanoic acid and ethanoic acid as products.

Try to think of an alkene that gives only one product.

Quote
C)The isomer D form threw oxidation:1 acetone, and 1 acid.
D = 2 emthyl 2 pentene

Correct

Quote
D)The isomer E form threw oxidation: CO2, H20 and the acid 2,2 dimethylpropane
E = 3,3 dimethyl 1 butene.

By "the acid 2,2 dimethylpropane", I assume you mean "2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid". Your answer is correct.

can you please tell me what are the A,B,C?i can't find them. can B,C be geometric isomers?

No, you have to try yourself, it is against Forum Policy to simply give you the answer.

You have got D and E correct. How did you decide on those answers? What was you logic? Apply that logic to A, B and C.

i did apply that login to A,B,C too but it didnt worked...

might C be 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene and B 2,3-dimethyl-1-butene ?

im sure 2 ethyl 1 butene gives acetone , double blond at O maybe?
ok you have to answer, tryied every isomer...

a must give ketone not acetone ;0
and i think A is right, since il get 2-methyl-3-pentanone and its ketone.

chec here https://www.cdli.ca/courses/chem2202/unit03_org03_ilo03/b_activity.html 2 methyl 3 pentanone is ketone, A is right.

Ok, I think I can see what the problem is.

Oxidation of isomer A produces a single ketone as the only product

The only possibility is 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene, which will produce only one product: propanone (also called acetone).

Similarly, oxidation of B or C produce a single acid as the only product.
