(a)
Interpretation:
The reduction transformation should be draw and identified given the starting molecule of
Concept Introduction:
Reduction reaction: This reaction involves the gaining of electrons by one of the atoms involved in the reaction, for example carbonyl compounds are reduced to primary alcohols and ketones are reduced to secondary alcohols.
Carbonyl group reduction process: These processes occur by formation of a bond to the carbonyl carbon atom by a hydride ion (H+) to the carbonyl oxygen atom.
(a)
Interpretation:
In which aldehyde or ketone might be reduced to yield the fallowing alcohols was founded it should be draw and identified.
