Chapter 13, Problem 13.31P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

A synthetic step for the given transformation, including reagents and special reaction conditions in the forward direction, is to be written.

Concept introduction:

Synthesis may be designed by thinking in the reverse direction, from the product to the starting compound, in a method called retrosynthesis. A synthesis is a specific sequence of chemical reactions that converts the starting materials into the desired compound, called the target (or synthetic target). The product given in the retrosynthetic step is the precursor for the synthetic step, followed by an arrow () with reaction conditions and the product (precursor in the retrosynthetic step) is the synthetic step.

Alkene to amine is a retrosynthethic approach of Hofmann elimination reaction.

The Hofmann elimination reaction leads to an anti-Zaitsev elimination product or Hofmann product. An amine with a poor leaving group is converted into a tetraalkyl ammonium ion, which has a moderately good leaving group, using excess of an alkyl halide like CH3I. Subsequent treatment with Ag2O, followed by heat, induces elimination.

Reaction with LDA leads to alkylation at the less highly alkyl substituted carbon atom.

Esterification is the reaction of acid with diazomethane to form the desired ester as a product.

Most hydrogen halide reactions with alkynes occur in a Markovnikov-manner in which the halide attaches to the most substituted carbon.

What is the reaction mechanism for this?
Predict the major products of both organic reactions. Be sure to use wedge and dash bonds to show the stereochemistry of the products when it's important, for example to distinguish between two different major products. esc esc Explanation Check 2 : + + X H₁₂O + Х ง WW E R Y qab Ccaps lock shift $ P X Click and drag to start drawing a structure. © 2025 McGraw Hill LLC.
