6)Draw perspective formulas for the acetonide formed from themeso and racemic hydrobenzoin (use models or PC Spartan ifnecessary to visualize these compounds).
7)Based on your structures in question 6.
a)How many H NMR signals should be observed for the benzylhydrogens for the meso and racemic acetonide? Explain youranswer
b)How many H NMR signals should be observed for the methylgroups for the meso and racemic acetonide? Explain youranswer.
c)Explain how H NMR can be used to establish the stereochemistryof the hydrobenzoin (meso or racemic) - formed in the reduction ofbenzil with NaBH4.
