Chapter 19.9, Problem 13P
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 19.9, Problem 13P , additional homework tip  1

Interpretation:

How to prepare 4-methylpentan-2-one from 4-methyl-3-pentene-2-one is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The double bond in an unsaturated ketone is to be reduced without affecting the carbonyl group. This reduction can be carried out using H2/Pd.

To show:

How to prepare 4-methylpentan-2-one from 4-methyl-3-pentene-2-one.

Interpretation Introduction

b)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 19.9, Problem 13P , additional homework tip  2

Interpretation:

How to prepare 2-methylpent-2-ene from 4-methyl-3-pentene-2-one is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The carbonyl group in a unsaturated ketone can be reduced to –CH2 without affecting the double bond by treating it with hydrazine in the presence of KOH (Wolf-Kishner reduction).

To show:

How to prepare 2-methylpent-2-ene from 4-methyl-3-pentene-2-one.

Interpretation Introduction

c)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 19.9, Problem 13P , additional homework tip  3

Interpretation:

How to prepare 2-methylpentane from 4-methyl-3-pentene-2-one is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The double bond in an unsaturated ketone is reduced without affecting the carbonyl group by treating it with H2/Pd. The carbonyl group of the saturated ketone formed can be converted to –CH2 group by Wolff-Kishner reduction.
