(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reaction mechanism has to be proposed for the given conversion.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The regioselectivity of carbon-carbon bond formation in the given conversion has to be accounted.
Concept Introduction:
Regioselectivity: It is the favouring of reactants or reagents to bond to one atom or another. Regioisomers are isomers in which connectivity of atoms varies but same number of atoms are present in it. An example of reaction between propene and hydrochloric acid for regioisomers is given as,
(c)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
For the given conversion, experimental condition has to be described.
(d)
Interpretation Introduction
