Chapter 21, Problem 21.89P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The structure of brevicomin is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: The acid-catalyzed cyclization of 6,7dihydroxy2nonanone gives brevicomin.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The synthesis of 6,7dihydroxynonan2one from 6bromohexan2one is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The nucleophilic addition reactions are the common reactions, which form products like imines, diols, alcohols, cyanohydrins, and alkenes. In nucleophilic reaction, an electron rich species attack the species that is deficient in electrons. The electrophile and the leaving group together form a substrate. The nucleophile attacks over the substrate and there occurs the removal of leaving group from the substrate.
