A hydrocarbon A (C6H10) burned a yellow, almost nonsmoky
flame. On catalytic hydrogenation over platinum catalyst it absorbed 1 mold of
hydrogen to form Compound B. it also decolorized a Br2-CH2Cl2 solution to yield
a dibromo derivative, C. Ozonolysis of the hydrocarbon gave only one compound,
D. Compound D gave a positive iodoform test when treated with iodine-sodium
hydroxide solution. On treatment of Compound D with an alcoholic solution of
silver ammonium hydroxide, a silver mirror was formed within a few minutes.
Identify the hydrocarbon A and Compounds B-D.
Solution: Identify the Hydrocarbon
