Tunicates are marine animals that are called "sea squirts" because when they are taken out of water, they tend to contract and expel seawater. Lepadiformine is a cytotoxic agent (toxic to cells) isolated from a marine tunicate. During a recent synthesis of lepadiformine, the investigators observed the formation of an interesting by-product (3) while treating diol 1 with a reagent similar in function to PBr3 (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 3390–3400):

For 20.7 the solutions for part c and d dont seem right. Shouldn't reacting with 1 eq of H2 just take away the C=C bond and not the C=O bond. (H2 reduces C=C selectively to form a ketone according to page 738. Also the both the C=C and C=O bond should be reduced if excess H2 is used
Describe how the product is purified. 4,4'-DIBROMOBIPHENYL [Biphenyl, 4,4'-dibromo-] Submitted by Robert E. Buckles and Norris G. Wheeler1. Checked by R. S. Schreiber, Wm. Bradley Reid, Jr., and Robert W. Jackson. 1. Procedure In a 15-cm. evaporating dish is placed 15.4 g. (0.10 mole) of finely powdered biphenyl (Note 1). The dish is set on a porcelain rack in a 30-cm. desiccator with a 10-cm. evaporating dish under the rack containing 39 g. (12 ml., 0.24 mole) of bromine. The desiccator is closed, but a very small opening is provided for the escape of hydrogen bromide (Note 2). The biphenyl is left in contact with the bromine vapor for 8 hours (or overnight). The orange solid is then removed from the desiccator and allowed to stand in the air under a hood for at least 4 hours (Note 3). At this point, the product weighs about 30 g. and has a melting point in the neighborhood of 152°. The crude 4,4'-dibromobiphenyl is dissolved in 75 ml. of benzene, filtered, and cooled to 15°. The…
