Question
Chapter 22.SE, Problem 52AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether optically active (S)-3-methylcyclohexanone will get racemized when treated with acid or base like 2-methylcyclohexanone is to be stated and explained.
Concept introduction:
During racemization the optically active compound first yields an achiral planar enol intermediate. When the intermediate reverts back to the chiral

When acetonitrile is treated with concentrated sulfuric acid and tert-butanol, followed by water, a product is formed
whose 'H NMR spectrum exhibits the following three signals: singlet, 1.3 ppm, 9 H; singlet, 2.0 ppm, 3 H; and
broad singlet, 8.2 ppm, 1 H. Its IR spectrum exhibits one broad absorption of medium intensity between 3300 and
3500 cm-1, and a narrow, intense absorption near 1650 cm¯1. A key intermediate is shown. Draw the structure of
the product, and draw the complete, detailed mechanism for the reaction.
