Chapter 10, Problem 44IP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The synthesis of the given compounds should be identified.

Concept introduction:

Radical or free radical: Unpaired valence electron of an atom, molecule, or ion is called as radical

Stability of Radicals: Radicals are highly unstable due to its unpaired valence electron of an atom.

Elimination reaction: An elimination reaction is removal of two substituents in a molecule and forms alkene. An elimination reaction comprises of one or two-step which is based on the mechanism when two substituents removed from the molecule in single step is called E1 reaction. When two substituents are removed from the molecule in two steps is called E2 reaction.

Zaitsev’s Rule: It is elimination reaction in which the formation of olefin on most hindered or highly substituted position
