(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

With lithium diphenylcuprate as one reagent the other reagent required preparing the given compound should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Preparation of organolithium: They are prepared by reaction of organohalide in presence of two equivalents of $Li$.

    $\text{R-X}\stackrel{\text{Li}\left(\text{2eq}\right)}{\to }\text{R-Li + LiX}$

Preparation of Grignard reagents: They are prepared by reaction of organohalide in presence $Mg$ in ether solvent.

    $\text{R-X}\underset{E{t}_{2}O}{\overset{Mg}{\to }}\text{R-Mg-X}$

Reaction between Grignard reagent and water: Grignard reagents are strong bases which in presence of water forms hydrocarbon easily.

Gillman reagent: The lithium copper reagent compound $(R_{2}CuLi)$ are very useful because unlike Grignard reagent and organolithium reagents, they react with organic halides to replace the halide group with an alkyl (R) group.

• Organocuprate $(R_{2}CuLi)$ are also known as Gilman Reagent.
• It is prepared from an organolithium compound by reaction with cuprous iodide in diethyl ether or THF as follows.

  

Retro synthesis: It is a technique of planning an organic synthesis by the reverse approach. In this technique, the starting materials are obtained by cleaving the target molecule into logical synthons. Synthons are precursor fragments of the target compound when it is cleaved. Depending on the stability, the synthons are classified as logical and illogical synthons. Logical synthons are highly stable precursor fragments, and illogical synthons are less stable precursor fragments of the target compound.
