Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The synthesis of the given compound from reagents containing four or fewer carbons is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Retrosynthetic analysis involves considering the reaction sequence in reverse. The analysis starts with the product, determining the precursor that can produce it when the reaction is carried out in the forward direction. The retrosynthesis step, called a transform, does not consider a specific reaction or reaction conditions for the reaction in the forward direction. The transform is represented by an open arrow (
The synthesis in the forward direction is then determined on the basis of the structural differences and
(b)
Interpretation:
The synthesis of the given compound from any alcohol is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Retrosynthetic analysis involves considering the reaction sequence in reverse. The analysis starts with the product, determining the precursor that can produce it when the reaction is carried out in the forward direction. The retrosynthesis step, called a transform, does not consider a specific reaction or reaction conditions for the reaction in the forward direction. The transform is represented by an open arrow (
The synthesis in the forward direction is then determined on the basis of the structural differences and functional groups to be incorporated or modified. The specific reaction and reaction conditions are determined at this stage.
(c)
Interpretation:
The synthesis of the given compound from reagents containing 5 or fewer carbons is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Retrosynthetic analysis involves considering the reaction sequence in reverse.
