a.
(a)
Interpretation: The Wittig reagent and carbonyl compound that are needed to prepare the given alkene are to be predicted, and the preferred route is to be identified, if any.
Concept introduction: One should follow the two steps retro synthesis to find out the starting materials that are needed to prepare the given alkene. The first step is cleaving of
Answer to Problem 21.57P
The Wittig reagent and carbonyl compound that are needed to prepare the given alkene are
Explanation of Solution
One should follow the two steps retrosynthesis to find out the Wittig reagent and carbonyl compound that are needed to prepare the given alkene. The first step is cleaving of
Figure 1
The second step is selection of preferred pathway. The Wittig reaction involves two pathways to synthesize unsymmetrical alkene and only one pathway to synthesize symmetrical alkene.
While selection one should consider that pathway in which Wittig reagent is derived from an unhindered alkyl halide, like
Figure 2
The first step for the preparation of Wittig reagent, formation of phosphonium salts, takes place through the
