Formaldehyde,H2C=O, is known to all biologists because of its usefulness as a tissue preservative. When pure, formaldehyde trimerizes to give trioxane,C3H6O3, which, surprisingly enough, has no carbonyl groups. Only one monobromo derivative (C3H5BrO3)of trioxane is possible. Propose a structure for trioxane.

In each of the following sets, which structures represent the same compoundand which represent different compounds?
