t-Bu What product(s) would you expect to obtain from acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the single epoxide stereoisomer above? Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. Keep the alkyl group in the same orientation as in the figure. If the reaction produces a racemic mixture, draw both stereoisomers. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate multiple products using the + sign from the drop-down menu.

OsO4 2. NaHSO3 In the box below, draw the structure of the organic product(s) of this reaction. Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. Show stereochemistry in a meso compound. If the reaction produces a racemic mixture, draw both stereoisomers. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate multiple products using the + sign from the drop-down menu.

Draw the final product of this series of reactions. Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. If more than one product is possible, only draw the major product. If the reaction produces a racemic mixture, draw both stereoisomers. Separate structures with + signs from the drop-down menu.
Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of a 1,2 -epoxycyclohexane produces a trans-diaxial 1,2-diol. What product would you expect to obtain from acidic hydrolysis of cis-3-tert-butyl-1,2-epoxycyclohexane? (Recall that the bulky tert-butyl group locks the cyclohexane ring into a specific conformation.)
