Chapter 25, Problem 25.68P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The synthesis that begins with safrole and uses a nucleophilic substitution reaction to introduce the amine is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Amines are the derivatives of ammonia consisting of a nitrogen atom with the lone pair of electrons. They are basic compounds. The synthesis of the products relies upon the type of reactants and reagents that are used during the reactions. The reagents perform numerous functions in reactions like proton abstraction, oxidation, reduction, catalysis, and dehydrogenation.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The synthesis that begins with safrole and uses reductive amination to introduce the amine is to be stated.
