To show:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown is to be stated.
b)
Interpretation:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
LiAlH4 in ether reduces unsaturated aldehydes, acids and esters to 10 alcohols. It reduces ketones to 20 alcohols. The double bond remains unaffected during the reduction.
To state:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown.
c)
Interpretation:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Pyridiniumchlorochromate in dichloromethane oxidizes 10 alcohols to aldehydes and 20 alcohols to ketones. H2, Pd/C can reduce the double bond in a compound without affecting aldehydic or keto group present in the compound.
To state:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown.
d)
Interpretation:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
LiAlH4 in ether reduces unsaturated aldehydes, acids and esters to 10 alcohols. It reduces ketones to 20 alcohols. The double bond remains unaffected during the reduction. The double bond can be reduced using H2, Pd/C.
To state:
Starting from testosterone how to prepare the compound shown.
