Compound A has molecular formula C7H14O and reacts with sodium borohydride in methanol to form an alcohol. The 1 H NMR spectrum of compound A exhibits only two signals: a doublet (I = 12) and a septet (I = 2). Treating compound A with 1,2-ethanedithiol (HSCH2CH2SH) under acidic conditions, followed b

Aquaporins exclude passage of hydronium ions (H30+). But recent research has revealed a role for some aquaporins in fat metabolism, in which they allow passage of glycerol, a three-carbon alcohol (see Figure 5.11), as well as H20. Since H30+ is much closer in size to water than is glycerol, what do y
