Hi, in this question we have given this compound and h plus h2 present.
00:04
There is lone pair of oxygen.
00:08
This is acetyl bond.
00:09
This bond will break in presence of h plus and h2.
00:13
This will take h plus first.
00:16
It will produce oh positive charge o.
00:25
This is 5 member ring and there is 6 member ring methyl methyl.
00:32
Now as oxygen is electronegative atom, so this bond will break from this side.
00:43
Positive charge will produce here.
00:48
This is oh o.
00:54
This now bond will break from this side not this side.
00:58
The reason is this positive charge cannot be satisfied with lone pair of oxygen.
01:02
That is why this will be more stable structure...
