Interpretation:
An efficient synthesis for the given transformation has to be predicted. The given reaction is shown as,
Concept Introduction:
Deactivators are electron withdrawing groups attached to the benzenes that have either positive charge or an atom with high electronegativity. They are meta directors.
Activators are electron donating groups attached to the benzenes that have either electron density that is able to push into benzene ring or a lone pair of electrons. They are ortho-para directing.
Halogens are deactivators that are ortho-para directing.
In a reaction, fuming sulfuric acid is used to introduce sulfonic groups in a compound (sulfonation) or sometimes used as blocking groups.
Chlorination: A reaction in which a chlorine atom is introduced to the compound.
In a reaction, sulfonic acid group can be removed from a compound by treating it with dilute sulfuric acid (desulfonation).
Friedel-Crafts Acylation: This Lewis acid-catalyzed electrophilic

- Construct a three-step synthesis of 3-bromocyclopentene from cyclopentane. Drag the appropriate items into the bins. Note that each bin should hold only one item, and not all reagents and structures will be used.arrow_forwardShown below is the conversion of pivaldehyde to tert-butyl benzoate. Fill in the best reagents to achieve this synthetic transformation. Note: If one or more reagents are incorrectly placed, a single red X will appear on the top left.arrow_forwardThis is another synthesis problem. Show reagents and intermediates synthesized along the way that allow you to produce the product from the given starting material. For this one do NOT assume you can isolate isomers - meaning - the product isomers shown must be the only predominant isomers you make during your synthesis! ? CH3OHarrow_forward
- Synthesis: Show how you would carry out the following synthesis. Include the reagents you would need for each step and the structure of the intermediate products formed in each step. You may use any inorganic reagents you need and organic reagents of four or fewer carbons.arrow_forwardPropose a multi-step synthesis of the target molecule shown at the right, using the starting materials on the left and any other reagents you need. Show the reagents needed for each step and the product of each step. You will need 4 reaction arrows.arrow_forwardSolve with explanation needarrow_forward
- Propose the best synthesis for each of the following molecules. All of the carbons in your target molecule must come from the organic molecules attached to this question. Thank you.arrow_forwardPlease help with explanation need.arrow_forwardPropose an efficient synthesis for the following transformation. The transformation above can be performed with some reagent or combination of the reagents listed below. Give the necessary reagent(s) in the correct order, as a string of letters (without spaces or punctuation, such as “EBF”). If there is more than one correct solution, provide just one answer.arrow_forward
- Continue the synthesis by selecting the reagents necessary for the next transformation shown. ? Br The transformation above can be performed with some reagent or combination of the reagents listed below. Give the necessary reagent(s) in the correct order, as a string of letters (without spaces or punctuation, such as "EBF"). If there is more than one correct solution, provide just one answer.
