Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.39P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Explanation for the change in configuration and retaining of configuration of the products in the given reactions has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Stereoisomers and chiral:
Isomers differing only in their spatial arrangement of atoms are called as stereoisomers.
The geometric property of a molecule that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image is known as chirality. Chiral carbon is the one which is attached with four different groups or atoms.

Students have asked these similar questions
a.) What was the product of the first step (reaction involving HCl)?
b.)What was the product of the second step (reaction involving NaOH)? If something else formed as the product of the first reaction, use that alternative structure as the reactant for this second reaction.
c.)How would you change the reaction conditions (either step 1 or step 2) to ensure you obtained the planned final product as the major product.
What statements correctly describe organometallic compounds?
A. They have an ionic bond because the bond is between a metal and a nonmetal
B. They are transformed into hydrocarbons by reacting with CH3OH or CH3COOH
C. They have a polar covalent bond which makes carbon a nucleophile and an electrophile
D. They react with epoxides to give an alcohol after hydrolysis.
E. They are prepared by reacting an arene, alkene or alkane with alkali metals or group II and some transition.
F. All are prepared by direct reaction of the metal of interest with any organic halide.
