Chapter 19, Problem 19.76P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Synthesis of hexan-3, 4-diol from propanal is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

For the reduction of aldehyde to alcohol, NaBH4 in the presence of ethanol is used.

For the conversion of bad leaving group (hydroxy group (OH)) into good leaving group like (Br) bromine, PBr3 is used. In this way, alcohol is converted into alkyl halide.

Alkyl halide is treated with triphenylphosphine P(C6H5)3 and a strong base like butyllithium (Bu-Li), which results in the formation of Wittig reagent.

Reaction of Wittig reagent with aldehyde results in the formation of alkene product.

Reaction of alkene with m-CPBA results in the formation of three membered epoxide ring.

The opening of the epoxide ring and formation of diol is carried out in the presence of acidic condition (H3O+, H2O).
