Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Structures of compounds A-J in the given reaction sequence are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Phosphorous tribromide
Potasium cynide (KCN) can substitute Br by cynide group.
Lithium aluminum hydride
The Hofmann elimination reaction leads to an anti-Zaitsev elimination product or Hofmann product. An
Sodium hydride (NaH) is an ionic hydride, and thus a strong base, but it is not nucleophilic.
