Chapter 10, Problem 29P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Each of the given compoundsis to be synthesized from isopropyl alcohol.

Concept Introduction:

>

The alcohol, in an acidic condition, undergoes dehydration by loss of H2O molecule and forms the corresponding alkene.

>

The alkynes, on hydrogenation with the catalyst Lindlar palladium, form a cis alkene.

>

The conjugate base of alkyne acts as a good nucleophile, and on reaction with a primary alkyl halide, undergoes a substitution reaction.

>

The alkyne, on hydrogenation by a Group 1 metal (lithium, sodium, or potassium) in liquid ammonia, undergoes trans addition of H2 and yields a trans alkene.

>

The alkene, on reaction with hydrogen bromide in the presence of peroxide, undergoes an addition reaction in a way that hydrogen bonds to a more substituted carbon of double bond and bromine bonds to a less substituted carbon of double bond.This is called anti-Markovnikov's rule.

>

Alkyne, on halogenation, forms vicinal dihalides.

>

The primary alkyl halide on reaction with potassium cyanide undergoes substitution reaction and forms the corresponding alkyl nitrile.
