Chapter 16, Problem 31P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reagents for the given reaction conversion are to be provided.

Concept Introduction:

>

Electrophiles are electron deficient species which has positive or partially positive charge. Lewis acids are electrophiles which accept electron pair.

>

Nucleophiles are electron rich species which has negative or partially negative charge. Lewis bases are nucleophiles which donate electron pair.

>

Nucleophilic addition reaction is a addition reaction where electron deficient or electrophilic double or triple bond reacts with electron rich species (nucleophile), with disappearance of the double bond and creation of two single bonds.

>

The Grignard reagent or RMgX is a polar organometallic reagent that undergoes nucleophilic addition reaction with aldehydes and ketones. It contains organic group which is covalently bonded to magnesium atom, which is also bonded to halogen atom.

>

In nucleophilic addition, the negative part of the attacking reagent goes to electron deficient carbon and gets attached. The addition product then undergoes elimination to form the final product.

>

Reaction conversion involves the conversion of one functional group to other. Increase in carbon chain length can be brought about by the reaction with the Grignard reagent followed by hydrolysis.

>

Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) is an oxidizing agent.
