Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how 1-ethylcyclohexanol can be prepared is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An alicyclic 30 alcohol is to be prepared from benzene. For this purpose benzene has to be converted into an alicyclic
To state:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how to prepare 1-ethylcyclohexanol.
b)
Interpretation:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how 3-methylhexan-1-ol can be prepared is to be given.
Concept introduction:
A six carbon straight chain alcohol with a methyl group on C3 is to be prepared from benzene. By ozonolysis, the benzene ring is broken to get the open chain dialdehyde glyoxal. To one of the aldehydic group in glyoxal, an isopentyl group can be introduced by treating with a suitable Grignard reagent. Upon heating the alcohol will eliminate water to yield an unsaturated
To give:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how to prepare 3-methylhexan-1-ol.
c)
Interpretation:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how 2-methyl-2-phenyl-2 butanol can be prepared is to be given.
Concept introduction:
An
To give:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how to prepare .
d)
Interpretation:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how 5-methylhexan-3-ol can be prepared is to be given.
Concept introduction:
A six carbon straight chain aldehyde with a methyl group on C4 is to be prepared from benzene. By ozonolysis, the benzene ring is broken to get the open chain dialdehyde, maloaldehyde with three carbon atoms. To one of the aldehydic group in the dialdehyde, an isobutyl group can be introduced by treating with a suitable Grignard reagent to get an aldol. The aldehyde group in the aldol is reduced to an alkyl group to get the alcohol requireds.
To give:
Starting with benzene and using other alcohols of six or fewer carbons as the organic reagents how to prepare 3-methylhexan-1-ol.
