Isoimpinellin, a naturally occurring ether, is found at very low levels in celery. Tests have shown that at high concentrations this compound can be a carcinogen (cancer-causing agent). This is not cause to avoid eating celery, however, because many foods naturally contain toxic substances at very low levels.

Isoimpinellin
(a) How many ether groups does isoimpinellin contain?
Enter an exact number.


(b) What other functional groups are present in this molecule? (Select all that apply.)
