Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The two methods for the preparation of 5-methylhexanoicacid from 1-bromo-4-methylpentane are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Organic or inorganic reagents are used for the synthesis of required compounds. There are various reagents used for the analysis of the compounds and for the conversion of one compound into another. 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.
