Chapter 15, Problem 15.11P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reagents to bring about the synthesis of the given compound from cyclohexane have to be shown.

Concept Introduction:

Retrosynthesis: The synthesizing a target molecule a synthetic route must be designed to give a pure sample of the target molecule using a convenient and efficient method. 

A logical approach for designing organic synthesis which involves breaking down of the target molecule into available starting materials by imaginary breaking of bonds ( Disconnection) and or by functional group interconversions (FGI) is known as disconnection approach or retrosynthetic analysis or retrosynthesis or synthesis backwards

Grignard reagent: Alkyl or aryl magnesium halides (RMgX) are known as Grignard reagent. The Grignard reaction is an organometallic chemical reaction in which the Grignard reagent act as nucleophile and attack electrophilic carbon atom that are present within polar bonds to yield a carbon-carbon bond.

Synthesis of Grignard reagent is shown below,

RXAlkyl/arylhalide+MgEtherRMgXGrignardreagent

Acid Catalyzed Hydration Reaction: The reaction involves breaking of π-bonds between carbon-carbon multiple bonds and addition of alcohol to more substituted position of carbon in the molecule.

Nucleophiles: A nucleophile is a more reactant species that affords a pair of electrons to the electrophile or electrophilic center and forms a new covalent bond. The carbon or other hetero atom in a molecule which is bearing negative charge or lone pair of electron is called as nucleophiles.

Ring-opening of epoxide: The epoxide is an electrophilic functional group and attacked by a Nucleophile at the less substituted carbon via SN2 process.

Stereoisomers are isomeric molecules that have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms but differ in the three-dimensional orientations of their atoms in space.

If there is no reagent that will make your desired product in good yield or without complications, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. There is no reagent that will make this synthesis work without complications. : ☐ S ☐
Predict the major products of this organic reaction: H OH 1. LiAlH4 2. H₂O ? Note: be sure you use dash and wedge bonds when necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. G C टे
For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new C-C bond, and check the appropriate box. Next, for each reaction to which you answered "Yes" to in the table, draw this product in the drawing area below. Note for advanced students: for this problem, don't worry if you think this product will continue to react under the current conditions - just focus on the first stable product you expect to form in solution. NH2 CI MgCl ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? Yes No MgBr ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? Yes No G टे
