Textbook Question
Chapter 10.9D, Problem 10.18P
A formate ester, such as ethyl formate, reacts with an excess of a Grignard reagent to give (after protonation) secondary alcohols with two identical alkyl groups.
- a. Propose a mechanism to show how the reaction of ethyl formate with an excess of allylmagnesium bromide gives, after protonation, hepta-1,6-dien-4-ol.
- b. Show how you would use reactions of Grignard reagents with ethyl formate to synthesize the following secondary alcohols.
- i. pentan-3-ol
- ii. diphenylmethanol
- iii. trans,trans-nona-2,7-dien-5-ol

What would happen if the carboxylic acid and alcohol groups were on the same molecule? In
essence, the molecule reacts with itself. Draw the structure of the products formed in this manner
using the reactants below. If two functional groups interact with one another on the same molecule,
this is called an “intramolecular" (within one) rather than "intermolecular" (between two or more)
attack.
