Question- An unknown aromatic compound A, has the molecular formula C13H16. Compound A reacts with Br2/CCl4 to give a tetrabrominated compound, C13H16Br4. When compound A is treated with hot, basic permanganate solutoim followed by acide, three different molecules, B, C, D are produced. Compound B is identical to the product obtained by the side-chain oxidation of meta-xylene. Compound C, C3H6O has only one single peak absorbance in its nmr spectrum. Compound D, C2H4O2, is water-soluable. Find the structures for compound A, B, C, and D.
