Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

How to synthesize n-butyl cyclohexane from cyclohexene, cyclohexanol and cyclohexane is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

All, the three reactants, cyclohexene, cyclohexanol and cyclohexane are converted into bromocyclohexane by trating with suitable reagents. The bromocyclohexane when treated with Gilmann reagent, lithium dobutylcopper yields the required product.
