what is the best way to come up with how to synthesize carboxylic acid , oct-4-yne to butanoic acid, or trans cyclodecene to decanedoic acid . I keep getting confused on how to go from the reactants to product, even with the amines. i can't figure out what to use to get to the product. Please explain Grignard rx as well.
1.- Why are carbon nanotubes and graphene currently considered as reinforcing additives for polymers? What effect do they have on the polymer? What is the mechanism by which they can enhance the Young’s modulus and tensile strength of a polymer? 2.- Kapton is the trade name of a polyimide a) How would you synthesize this polymer? b) During the first stage of the reaction, poly(amic acid) is formed. If you need to follow this stage of the polymerization, what spectroscopic techniques would you use and what groups should you focus on? c) How would you form Kapton films, which can be used as support for solar sails? d) What are the disadvantages of Kapton that have limited their use? Why does this polymer present this weakness?

1) Based on the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for the compounds, which of the compounds in this experiment is the most hazardous, and why (you have been given a representative aryl halide rather than all of the alkenes – as the products are all new, there’s not a simple answer to gauge their potential hazard)? 2,3-dihydrofuran,2-Mercaptobenzimidazole,Selectfluor, Dimethylformamide,dichloromethane-methylene chloride.

Esters can be synthesized from the nucleophilic substitution reaction of anhydrides and alcohol in the presence of a base give a complete mechanism and the final product for the reaction below 2. using appropriate illustrations, explain what is meant by the tetrahedral transition state( also indicate the geometry for the starting material and product).
can i get help drawing out actual structures including the nucleophilic addition of Cy2NH to parafomaldehyde and its hemiaminal intermidiate and the condensation step when it is displaced by terminal alkyne forming allene, also what is dioxane getting rid of as the solvent, thanks
(a) How will you carry out the following conversions?(i) Acetylene to Acetic acid (ii) Toluene to m-nitrobenzoic acid(iii) Ethanol to Acetone(b) Give reasons :(i) Chloroacetic acid is stronger than acetic acid.(ii) pH of reaction should be carefully controlled while preparing ammonia derivatives of carbonyl compounds.
please quickly thanks ! 3.Please write out the major reaction and side-reaction in the preparation of ter-butyl.chloride, and write out the key points to use separation funnel in this process.
. A colorless liquid, C4H6O, having a boiling point of 97-98°C was found to be soluble in water and also in ether. It gave a negative test for the presence of halogens, sulfur, and nitrogen. It did however, give a positive test to 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine reagent. It gave a negative result when treated with ceric nitrate solution and also Tollen’s reagent. Treatment with ozone followed by hydrolysis in the presence of zinc gave formaldehyde as one of the products. What is the structure and name of the colorless liquid?
Starting with (S)-2-hexanol as your only source of carbon, provide the reagents necessary, in order, to synthesize the following molecules as the predominant organic product. More than one step may be necessary. You may use any inorganic reagents necessary. You may use a retro synthetic approach, but you must still show the forward then thesis. Be specific about (1) order of addition (2) equivalents and (3) stereochemistry.
