(a)
Interpretation: The reagents that will aid in the transformation of the following compound is to be determined.
Concept introduction: The final product contains two more carbon atoms than the starting material. This can be achieved by using a Grignard reagent to add the ethyl fragment. The compound will then be oxidized using a suitable oxidizing reagent to yield the desired product.
(b)
Interpretation: The reagents required for the transformation of the following compound are to be determined.
Concept introduction: The final product has one more carbon atom than the starting material. By using a suitable Grignard reagent, a substituted alcohol is formed. This alcohol can be oxidized using a suitable oxidizing agent to yield the desired ketone product.
