Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A mechanism for the first step of the given reaction has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Grignard Reaction: This is a organometallic reaction in different alkyl, aryl-magnesium halides add to a carbonyl group in an
Alkyl or aryl magnesium halides (
Synthesis of Grignard reagent is shown below,
Nucleophiles: A nucleophile is a more reactant species that affords a pair of electrons to the electrophile or electrophilic center and forms a new covalent bond. The carbon or other hetero atom in a molecule which is bearing negative charge or lone pair of electron is called as nucleophiles.
(b)
Interpretation:
The function of the acid in the second step for given reaction has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Grignard Reaction: This is a organometallic reaction in different alkyl, aryl-magnesium halides add to a carbonyl group in an aldehyde and ketone. This reaction is an important for the conversion of carbon-carbon single

- The following are intermediate products in the stepwise synthesis of compound 1 from benzene. Give the correct sequence of reactions with the appropriate reagents that will lead to the correct intermediate products and final product.arrow_forwardSuggest a suitable mechanism for this multi-step reaction, and give products A and Barrow_forwardPropanal and propanone react in a similar way with acidified aqueous potassium cyanide, KCN. For this reaction to occur reasonably quickly, the pH of the solution should be approximately 4. The reaction of propanal proceeds with acidified potassium cyanide proceeds more rapidly than that of propanone. Referring to the mechanism of the reactions, explain this phenomenon.arrow_forward
