Question
Chapter 16.12, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A synthesis for the given compounds using the given starting materials is to be outlined.
Concept Introduction:
Alcohols contain hydroxyl group, which is not a good leaving group. Therefore, alcohols do not show substitution reactions directly.
Alcohols upon reaction with phosphorus tribromide are converted into alkyl bromides.
Bromine is a good leaving group and can be substituted by conjugate base of
