(a)
Interpretation:
The synthetic route for the preparation of given transformation (mechanism) should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Birch Reduction: The conjugated
The alkyne involves sodium (Na)/NH3. This end up reducing to alkyne to give the trans (E)
Tautomerism: The two isomer of compound which differ only in the position of the protons and electrons. In the carbon skeleton of the compound is unchanged, a reaction which involves simple proton transfer in an intramolecular fashion it is called a tautomerism.
(b)
Interpretation:
The synthetic route for the preparation of given transformation (mechanism) should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Birch Reduction: The conjugated alkynes and benzenes in the presence of sodium metal in liquid ammonia and alkyne produced a non-conjugated diene system.
The alkyne involves sodium (Na)/NH3. This end up reducing to alkyne to give the trans (E) alkene.
Tautomerism: The two isomer of compound which differ only in the position of the protons and electrons. In the carbon skeleton of the compound is unchanged, a reaction which involves simple proton transfer in an intramolecular fashion it is called a tautomerism.
