The chemist observes different peak patterns in standard and chiral HPLC, indicating the presence of different compounds or isomers. The goal is to understand how the reactions of (E)- and (Z)-oct-4-ene with mCPBA and aqueous acid lead to distinct outcomes in terms of peak observations, reflecting the complexity of the products formed."}
