Question
Chapter 8, Problem 62P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the given reaction and its similarity with cyclisation of squalene oxide to lanosterol are to be proposed.
Concept Introduction:
▸ A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon or a functional group is substituted by any other functional group is called a substitution reaction.
▸ A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called an elimination reaction.
▸ An addition reaction is a reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated molecules by the addition of molecules
