The Six Unique Hydrogen Atoms in the Molecule Below Are

Question 46

Essay

The six unique hydrogen atoms in the molecule below are labeled a-f.Suppose we individually replace each of these unique hydrogen atoms with a hydroxyl group (-OH)and draw a new molecule of formula C6H10O2.(In the cases of Ha,Hb,and Hc,substitute only one designated H with an OH.)Which of the new -OH groups would have localized lone pairs on oxygen? Which of the -OH groups would have a delocalized lone pair? Finally,for each molecule,identify the new functional group created.
