An optically activ compound (A) has the molecular formula C_(6)H_(10) . The compound gives a ppt. When treated with Ag(NH_(3))_(2)OH . On catalytic hydrogenation, A yields B(C_(6)H_(14)) which is only optically inactive identify the total number of alphaH in product formed by treatment of A with O_(3)//H_(2)O_(2) then LAH and then H^(o+)//Delta

Write the name and structrue of the following optically active compounds with lowest moleuclar weight. i. alkane ii. Alkene iii. Alkyne iv. unsaturated hydrocabon v. alkyl halide vi. Alcohol vii. Acid viii. Amine.

Carbene intermediates are produced by the photolysis of diazomethane (CH_2N_2) or kenene (CH_2 = C = O) . They are also produced by the reaction of CHX_3 with base or by Simmons-Smith reaction. There are two types of carbenes, singlet and triplet. They are so called due to their spin state. An optically active alkene (I) with lowest molecular mass on hydrogenation gives optically inactive alkene, but on insertion of methylene carbene ( : CH_2) in (I) , it gives optically active compound (II) . The compounds (I) and (II) are : .
