For our multi-step synthesis we cannot just calculate the yield based on starting amount of benzaldehyde and final amount of diphenylacetylene because your group may have been supplemented with commercial material at one or more steps. In truth most chemist use an excess of the least expensive reagent to increase their yield. So in our case benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride should probably be our limiting reagent. Assuming that benzaldehyde is the limiting reagent for the synthesis of stilbene, that stilbene is the limiting reagent for the synthesis of stilbene dibromide, and that stilbene dibromide is the limiting reagent for the synthesis of diphenylacetylene; what is the overall % yield of diphenylacetylene from benzaldehyde given the percentage yield of each step of the reaction sequence as follows? Give only two significant digits. If the answer is a whole number with two digits, do not include the decimal. benza Idehy de Notes: 66% stil be ne 23% stilbene dibromi de 66% dipheny lacetyle ne

b. Design the syntheses of the following three compounds, i, ii, and iii using the starting materials provided along with any reagents discussed in CHEM2401 and CHEM2402. The starting materials need to be transformed for the development of the reaction pathways and cannot be used directly to form the products. These are multiple step syntheses.

Draw the content of the final reaction mixture. Explain your reasoning.
What is a multistep synthesis that results in 2-bromocyclohexanone from cyclohexene, allowing any organic or inorganic reagents?
The question is: Consider a mixture containing 0.5 benzil and 0.05 biphenyl. Your task is to isolate the benzil in pure form. Would this be best accomplished by recrystallization or extraction? I don’t really know which one would be better cause both can isolate a substance in its pure form. Thanks!
Show how to synthesize the following product as the major product starting with 2,2-dimethylpropane as the starting material. You may use additional reagents and any number of steps. Be sure to list each step with all reactants/reagents/conditions required. (Do not use hydrogenation reactions). Write the process.
Convert 2-pentanol into 2,3-dibromopentane. Draw structures of the starting material (2-pentanol) and final product (2,3-dibromopentane), and show the two reactions needed for this synthesis. Include the structure of the intermediate compound, and the reagents and conditions for each reaction. Then explain why 1,2-dibromopentane would not be a significant product of this synthesis.
Write a reaction that could be carried out to synthesize 1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol (reactants will be a combination of Grignard reagent and carbonyl compound).
Devise a synthesis for your assigned compound using organic reagents no larger than two or three carbons, or benzene, as your only organic source of carbon. That is, any organic compounds larger than three carbons (excluding benzene) required for your synthesis must be made as part of the solution to your problem. You may use any inorganic reagents necessary without restriction. Group 21 Structure: IN CH2CH3
Give the major product of the following reactions. This is one question just consists of multiple parts.
In the lab for the synthesis of methyl m-nitrobenzoate from methyl benzoate using HNO3 and H2SO4 via EAS, the product is recrystallized to remove impurities using 95% ethanol. Would o-nitrobenzoate and methyl p-nitrobenzoate be considered impurities? If that is so, how come ethanol can remove o-nitrobenzoate and methyl p-nitrobenzoate, but has no effect on m-nitrobenzoate? Thank you.
What change can be made to allow for a faster rate of reaction if poor solubility of KOH in ethanol slowed the rate and led to slow deprotonation of dibenzyl ketone?
