Chapter 18.9, Problem 19P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The given alkene is to be synthesized using Wittig reagent and organometallic reagent.

Concept introduction: Aldehyde can be directly converted to alkene using triphenyl phosphonium ylide. The geometry of the alkene formed, depends on the stability of the ylides.

Grignard reagents are organometallic compounds which are prepared using alkyl halides in the presence of magnesium metal in dry ether. These reagents act as strong nucleophiles and bases.

What alkyne yields each ketone as the only product both with acid-catalyzed hydration and after hydroboration–oxidation?
Draw the product(s) formed when each alkene is treated with either [1] HBr alone; or [2] HBr in the presence of peroxides.
Devise a synthesis of each compound from ethanol (CH3CH2OH) as the only source of carbon atoms. You may use any other organic or inorganic reagents you choose.
