Compound A, C11H16O, was found to be an optically active alcohol. Despite its apparent unsaturation, no hydrogen was absorbed on catalytic reduction over a Pd/C catalyst. On treatment of A with dilute H2SO4, dehydration occurred and an optically inactive alkene B, C11H14 was produced as the major product. Alkene B, on ozonolysis, gave two products. Product C, C7H6O, was shown to be an aldehyde while product D, C4H8O, was shown to be a ketone.
Draw the structure of compound A.
Do not consider stereochemistry.
