c) 1-Methylcyclopentanol
Interpretation:
How to prepare1-methylcyclopentanol from cyclopentanol is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A 20 alcohol is to be converted into a 30 alcohol. Oxidizing the alcohol to a ketone and treating the ketone with a Grignard reagent will lead to the formation of the 30 alcohol.
To state:
How to prepare 1-methylcyclopentanol from cyclopentanol is to be stated.
d) trans-2-Methylcyclopentanol
Interpretation:
How to prepare trans-2-Methylcyclopentanol from cyclopentanol is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Alcohols when treated with acids undergo dehydration to yield an alkene. The alkenes can be hydrated either by oxymercuration-demercuration process following Markovnikov regiochemistry or by hydroboration-oxidation following anti-Markovnikov regiochemistry.
To state:
How to prepare trans-2-methylcyclopentanol from cyclopentanol.
