Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of HOCH2CH2C(CH3)2CN forms compound A (C6H10O2). A shows a strong peak in its IR spectrum at 1770 cm1 and the following signals in its 1 H NMR spectrum: 1.27 (singlet, 6 H), 2.12 (triplet, 2 H), and 4.26 (triplet, 2 H) ppm. Draw the structure for A and give a stepwise mechanism that accounts for its formation.
