The synthesis of the given target molecule from
Concept introduction:
Synthesis may be designed by thinking in the reverse direction, from the product to the starting compound, in a method called retrosynthesis. Retrosynthesis involves starting with the product and determining a suitable precursor from which it can be synthesized, without considering specific reactions. The precursor must be a simpler molecule, which may or may not have a close structural relation to the target molecule. This process is repeated until an easily available (or easily prepared) precursor is reached. Each of these steps is called a transform. A synthesis is a specific sequence of

- (SYN) Show how you would carry out this synthesis.arrow_forwardDraw the complete, detailed mechanism for the reaction shown here. Will the product be optically active? Explain.arrow_forward(SYN) In the reaction shown here, the aromatic ring has just one chemically distinct, aromatic H, so a single electrophilic aromatic substitution will lead to just a single product. With this in mind, supply the missing reagentsneeded to carry out the transformation.arrow_forward
- Please draw detailed mechanism for this reaction to produce corresponding boronic ester (picture as attached). if X group is electron withdrawing group, will the reaction have the higher chance of happening than in case -X group is electron donating group? Please also explain detailed your answer...arrow_forwardplease draw the complete, detailed mechanism and the product of this reaction.arrow_forwardOrganic Chemistry problem. Please help with finding the product of the reaction shown in the image (where the question mark is). Thank youarrow_forward

Also indicate which species is the electrophile and which is the nucleophile.arrow_forwardHelp, explain in detail please. Thank you! Did the following overall reaction occur by an SN2, SN1, E2, or E1 mechanism? How do you know? Draw the complete, detailed mechanism to account for the formation of both products.arrow_forward(SYN) Show how each of the following compounds can be synthesized from an acid chloride and either water, an alcohol, or an amine. For each reaction, provide the complete, detailed mechanism.arrow_forward
