Multiple Choice Question A H HH HH The fatty acid in C is unsaturated. How could it be converted to the straight OFc C-C -C-C-C-C-H structure in A and B? HO H HH HH B H HH HH HH OS 1 1 O Remove the upper hydrogen atoms from carbons 4 and 5 (counting - C -C - C-C-C-C-C-H from the left), which would remove the kink in the molecule. HO H H H H H H H C O Remove upper hydrogens atoms from carbons 3 and 6 (counting H H H from the left) to balance out those missing from carbons 4 and 5. H O=c -C-C-CFC- H O Add hydrogen atoms to carbons 4 and 5 (counting from the left), HO H H C - H which would saturate all carbon atoms. H O The structure in C cannot be converted into a straight structure
