- A student tried to prepare the following compounds using aldol condensations. Which of these compounds was she successful in synthesizing? Explain why the other syntheses were not successful.arrow_forwardPropose a multi-step synthesis of the target molecule shown at the right, using the starting materials on the left and any other reagents you need. Show the reagents needed for each step and the product of each step. You will need 4 reaction arrows. Remember: Aldehyde + terminal alkyne anion in acid = alcoholarrow_forwardHow might you prepare this molecule using a nucleophilic displacement of an alkyl halide?arrow_forward
