Question
Chapter 18.6, Problem 20PTS
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: For the given transformations, efficient synthesis should be proposed.
Concept introduction:
- When approaching a synthesis problem two questions should be asked
-
- 1. Is there a change in the carbon skeleton?
- 2. Is there a change in the position or identity of the
functional group
- When approaching a synthesis problem, should not encounter a one-step method
- The desired transformation can achieve in two steps
- There are two ways to introduce functionality at a benzylic position
-
- 1. Oxidation, which produces benzoic acid at benzylic position
- 2. Radical bromination, which produces benzylic halide.
(b)
