Question:

An optically active compound A (C9H11Br) reacts with sodium ethoxide in ethanol to give an optically inactive hydrocarbon B (NMR spectrum in Fig. P16.58). Compound B undergoes hydrogenation over a Pd/C catalyst at room temperature to give a compound C, which has the formula C9H12. Give the structures of A, B, and C.2400 absorption 5H 8 2100 1800 7 1500 6 1H 1H chemical shift, Hz 1200 900 5 600 4 3 chemical shift, ppm (8)
