Reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanoneIntroductionOne of the last topics covered in Organic I was the reduction of carbonyl containing compounds such asaldehydes, ketones, esters, and carboxylic acids. Reduction can be defined in many different ways: oneof which is the increase in hydrogen atoms in the compound. One of the most important reactions forsynthesizing primary and secondary alcohols is through the reduction of aldehydes and ketones byadding H2 across carbonyl double bond. One of the most common methods to achieve thistransformation is through a metal hydride delivery agent such as lithium aluminum hydride (LAH) orsodium borohydride (NaBH4).The first step in this reaction is the transfer of a hydride ion to the carbon of the carbonyl. The hydrideacts as a nucleophile and attacks the carbon of the carbonyl. The hydride can either come in via anaxial attack or an equatorial attack depending on steric factors and the placement of other substituentson the ring. Below is the…
