Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Acid chlorides, which contains good leaving group Cl, on reaction with organocuprate give ketone as a product. Alkyl group from organocuprate occupies the position of leaving group Cl.

Answer to Problem 20.30P

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is LiAl(OBu)3H.

Explanation of Solution

The given compound is aldehyde. Acid chlorides on reaction with mild reducing agent like lithium tri-tert-butoxyaluminium hydride (LiAl(OBu)3H) converts into aldehyde as shown in Figure 1.

Concept introduction: Acid chlorides, which contains good leaving group Cl, on reaction with organocuprate give ketone as a product. Alkyl group from organocuprate occupies the position of leaving group Cl.

Answer to Problem 20.30P

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is CH3CH2MgBr.

Explanation of Solution

The structure of given ketone compound shows that the hydroxyl group is attached to tertiary carbon atom. Acid chlorides on reaction with two equivalents of Grignard reagent convert into tertiary alcohol. The first equivalent of Grignard reagent remove good leaving Cl group and second equivalent converts ketone to alcohol. The conversion of (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound by the use of CH3CH2MgBr is shown in Figure 2.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 20, Problem 20.30P , additional homework tip  2

Figure 2

Therefore, CH3CH2MgBr is needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound.

Conclusion

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is CH3CH2MgBr.

Answer to Problem 20.30P

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is (CH3CH2)2CuLi.

Explanation of Solution

The structure of given compound shows that the carbonyl carbon is attached to ethyl group. Ethyl group can occupy the position of leaving group Cl when (CH3)2CHCH2COCl is treated with (CH3CH2)2CuLi as shown in Figure 3.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 20, Problem 20.30P , additional homework tip  3

Figure 3

Therefore, (CH3CH2)2CuLi is needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound.

Conclusion

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is (CH3CH2)2CuLi.

Concept introduction: Acid chlorides, which contains good leaving group Cl, on reaction with organocuprate give ketone as a product. Alkyl group from organocuprate occupies the position of leaving group Cl.

Answer to Problem 20.30P

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is LiAlH4.

Explanation of Solution

Acid chlorides on reaction with strong reducing agent like lithium aluminium hydride (LiAlH4) converts into primary alcohol as shown in Figure 4.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 20, Problem 20.30P , additional homework tip  4

Figure 4

Therefore, LiAlH4 is needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound.

Conclusion

The reagent needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCl to given compound is LiAlH4.
