It
reads either: cis-1,2-dmethylcyclohexane (schematic A) or cis-1-ethyl-2methylcyclohexane (schematic B). You measure the optical rotation and note
that it does not change as the temperature rises to room temperature. Is the
molecule A or B? Explain in detail, please, and note that you cannot answer
this question in two dimensions or with the schematic structures given.

4 (30 points). Once again, you have a bottle containing a molecule with two
possible structures. It is either (1) or (2). The molecule reacts with HBr to
+
give 3 and 4, then a second step, reaction with Na SH, gives 5 and 6.
Is the structure 1 or 2? Circle the correct structure, then give structures for 3,
4, 5, and 6. On the next page show arrow formalisms for their formations and
explain how you know the structure of the starting molecule (1 or 2).

6 (12 points). Here are four short answers to four short questions.
Something is wrong with each answer. Tell us what is wrong in each
case. Do NOT write a book-long answer! The overly-wordy answer to all
parts uses a total of 51 words.
