(a)
Interpretation:
A systematic scheme for the transformation of the cyclopentanecarboxylic acid from cyclopentanol is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
When an unsymmetrical , an alkyl bromide is formed. The substitution of
in an alkene takes place by Markovnikov’s rule. According to Markovnikov’s rule, halide is substituted to the carbon atom which bears less number of hydrogen atoms and hydride ion is substituted to the carbon atom which bears more number of hydrogen atoms.
Grignard reagents are
(b)
Interpretation:
A systematic scheme for the transformation of the octanoic acid from is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
When an unsymmetrical alkene is reacted with , an alkyl bromide is formed. The substitution of
in an alkene takes place by Markovnikov’s rule. According to Markovnikov’s rule, halide is substituted to the carbon atom which bears less number of hydrogen atoms and hydride ion is substituted to the carbon atom which bears more number of hydrogen atoms.
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.

If there's more than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and desh bonds if necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. If the major products of this reaction won't have a new C-C bond, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank.arrow_forwardwrite the mechanism of the nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction, please give an examplearrow_forward
