Naturally-occurring compounds called cyanogenic glycosides, such as lotaustralin, release hydrogen cyanide, HCN, when treated with aqueous acid. The reaction occurs by hydrolysis of the acetal linkage to form a cyanohydrin, which then expels CN- and gives a carbonyl compound. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the reaction mechanism.

For the following dehydrohalogenation (e2) reaction, draw the zaitsev product(s) resulting from elimination involving c3–c4 (i.e., the carbon atoms depicted with stereobonds). show the product stereochemistry clearly. if there is more than one organic product, both products may be drawn in the same box. ignore elimination involving c3 or c4 and any carbon atom other than c4 or c3.
