One of the most important uses for Grignard reagents is their addition to carbonyl compounds to give new carbon- carbon bonds. In this reaction, the carbon of the organometallic compound acts as a nucleophile to add to the positive carbon of the carbonyl forming an alkoxide ion intermediate. Aqueous acid is used in the second step to protonate the alkoxide ion and form the product alcohol. مدا x (racemic) Draw the structure of the product(s) of step 1 when the following compound reacts with phenylmagnesium bromide. 1. C6H5MgBr 2. H₂O* You should include all products. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. OH C6H5

the organic compound 2-heptanone, belonging to the ketone family, is responsible for the strong penetrating odor in Roquefort cheeses. Starting from acetylene as the starting reagent, propose a synthesis line with the reaction mechanisms involved for the synthetic obtaining of 2-heptanone and use it as a food additive in analogous cheeses.
A synthetic organic molecule, G, which contains both aldehyde and ether functional groups, is subjected to a series of reactions in a multi-step synthesis pathway. In the first step, G undergoes a Wittig reaction, leading to the formation of an alkene, H. Subsequently, H is treated with an ozone (O3) reagent followed by a reducing agent in an ozonolysis reaction, resulting in the formation of two different products, I and J. Considering the functional groups present in G and the nature of the reactions involved, what are the most probable structures or functional groups present in products I and J? A. I contains a carboxylic acid group, and J contains an aldehyde group. B. I contains a ketone group, and J contains an alcohol group. C. I and J both contain aldehyde groups. D. I contains an ester group, and J contains a ketone group. Don't use chat gpt.
Following is a retrosynthetic analysis for an intermediate in the industrial synthesis of vitamin A. (a) Addition of one mole of HCl to isoprene gives 4-chloro-2-methyl-2-butene as the major product.

The pyrolysis of acetic esters to give an alkene and acetic acid is thought to involve a planar transition state and cyclic redistribution of (4n + 2) electrons. Propose a mechanism for pyrolysis of the following ester.
The base-promoted rearrangement of an -haloketone to a carboxylic acid, known as the Favorskii rearrangement, is illustrated by the conversion of 2-chlorocyclohexanone to cyclopentanecarboxylic acid. It is proposed that NaOH first converts the a-haloketone to the substituted cyclopropanone shown in brackets and then to the sodium salt of cyclopentanecarboxylic acid.

(b) Propose a mechanism for base-promoted conversion of the proposed intermediate to sodium cyclopentanecarboxylate.
Enamines normally react with methyl iodide to give two products: one arising from alkylation at nitrogen and the second arising from alkylation at carbon. For example, Heating the mixture of C-alkylation and N-alkylation products gives only the product from C-alkylation. Propose a mechanism for this isomerization.
-Hydroxyketones and -hydroxyaldehydes are also oxidized by treatment with periodic acid.
