Question
Chapter 12.13, Problem 28ATS
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A proper synthesis for the following compound using acetylene is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The final product has ten carbon atoms, while the starting material acetylene has only two carbon atoms. This means there must be many carbon-carbon coupling reactions involved. The product is an ester which means one of the possible ways of synthesis must be a reaction of a

Alcohols may be dehydrated under mildly basic conditions using phosphorus oxychloride (POCl3) in pyridine. The alcohol reacts with phosphorus oxychloride much like it reacts with tosyl chloride, displacing a chloride ion from phosphorus to give an alkyl dichlorophosphate ester. The dichlorophosphate group is an outstanding leaving group. Pyridine reacts as a base with the dichlorophosphate ester to give an E2 elimination.
