To write the structures of the specified compounds, we will analyze each compound based on its name, identifying the functional groups and the carbon skeleton. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### (i) Alpha-Methoxypropionaldehyde 1. **Identify the carbon chain**: The name indicates a propionaldehyde, which means there are 3 carbons in the main chain. 2. **Identify the functional groups**: The term "methoxy" indicates the presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the alpha position (the first carbon next to the aldehyde). 3. **Draw the structure**: - Start with the propionaldehyde: CH3-CH2-CHO. - Add the methoxy group to the alpha position: CH3-CH(OCH3)-CHO. ...
