Question
Chapter 11.4, Problem 8ATS
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: An efficient synthesis for the following transformation is to be determined.
Concept introduction: One carbon atom must be added to the final product in this process. Because the carbon-carbon triple bond in the final product has taken the place of the carbon-carbon double bond in the starting material, there is also a change in the identity of a

In the mid-1930s a substance was isolated from a fungus that is a parasite of ryes and other grasses. This alkaloid, lysergic acid, has
been of great interest to chemists because of its strange, dramatic action on the human mind. Many derivatives of lysergic acid are
known, some with medicinal applications. Perhaps the best known derivative of lysergic acid is the potent hallucinogen lysergic acid
diethylamide (LSD):

- Paroxetine (Paxil) is an antidepressant that is a member of a family of drugs known as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIS). This family of drugs also includes fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft). SSRIS work by inhibiting the reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the synapses of the central nervous system follow- ing release of serotonin during excitation of individual nerve cells. Between firings, the serotonin is taken back up by a nerve cell in preparation for firing again. Inhibition of reuptake has the effect of increasing the time serotonin molecules remain in the syn- apses following excitation, leading to a therapeutic effect.
