Chapter 9.SE, Problem 38AP
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 9.SE, Problem 38AP , additional homework tip  1

Interpretation:

How to synthesize butanal from 1-pentyne is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

Alkynes can be converted in to the corresponding alkenes by treating with H2 in the presence of Lindlar catalyst. The alkene produced upon ozonolysis followed by treatment with Zn and acetic acid yields an aldehyde with lesser number of carbon atoms.

To show:

How to synthesize butanal from 1-pentyne.

Interpretation Introduction

b)

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 9.SE, Problem 38AP , additional homework tip  2

Interpretation:

How to synthesize trans- 6-methyl-3 heptene from 4-methyl-1-pentyne is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

Higher alkynes can be prepared first by converting the lower alkyne in to an alkynide by reacting with NaNH2 in liquid NH3 followed by the reaction of the alkynide with alkyl halide containing the required number of carbon atoms. The higher alkyne thus obtained upon treatment with Li in liquid NH3 will get reduced to yield a trans alkene as the product.

To show:

How to synthesize trans- 6-methyl-3 heptene from 4-methyl-1-pentyne.
