Chapter 17.7, Problem 13P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The product formed by the treatment of given compound with either lithium aluminum hydride or sodiumboro hydride is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Sodiumborohydride is a metal reducing agent. It reduces ketones and aldehyde into secondary alcohols and primary alcohols respectively. Lithium aluminum hydride is a strong reducing agent. Treatment of carbonyl compounds with lithium aluminum hydride followed by water yields alcohols. It reduces aldehyde into primary alcohol.
