00:01
Okay, so we're asked to answer the following questions, and we are starting with this structure.
00:12
So you have an ester, an oxygen bounce, an ethyl, and we want to create ethanol.
00:20
So if we react this with lithium -molubleodum hydride over h3 plus, it's going to reduce the ketone into an alcohol and get rid of the ester.
00:31
So reduction is the addition of hydrogens.
00:35
So on the left, we have three, and on the right, we have two.
00:40
Three, six, so it's reduction.
00:52
So for b, we have to give the structure of compound three, reacting with two phenol magnesium bromides.
01:08
So phenol magnesium bromide, magnesium bromide makes it a greener artery agent, and the carbon is going to attack the ketone, converting the alcohol into, or converted the ketone into an alkalion.
01:25
So we're going to get this structure.
01:32
But then instead of expelling the phenol or the methyl, it's going to regenerate this bond and expel the ester.
01:42
So we'll get the ketone back, and they're reacting this with phenyl magnesium bermine again.
01:47
It's going to attack the ketone again.
01:50
And this time we'll get an alcohol.
01:53
So we'll eventually get, so without showing the mechanism.
02:04
So again, this carbon is nucleophilic.
02:06
It's going to attack the carbonyl carbon, and we'll eventually get this intermediate.
02:12
It.
02:14
So instead of expelling either a phenol or a methyl, it's going to depurtenate an acid, and we'll get an alcohol with two phenols.
02:37
So we got rid of the ester.
02:40
Then for for ci, we have to show the mechanism for how one is converted into four.
02:54
So if we react the structure with acid, the ketone is going to interact with the acid.
03:02
It's going to depotinate it.
03:07
So now it's a positive charge because it donated a pair of electrons or a negative.
03:14
The next step is for a water molecule.
03:18
So i'm going to use a different color because this is the question for d -a -2.
03:25
This is oxygen 18.
03:28
And it's going to attack the carbonyl carbon, to create a ketone into an alcohol.
03:39
You have the addition of an oh2.
03:49
This should be the positive charge.
03:57
And we still have the estuarine here.
04:01
So another water molecule.
04:04
Is going to deprotinate.
04:09
We're going to get the structure to oh.
04:22
So at this point, the ester is going to interact with water to turn itself into a better leaving group.
04:57
So because we have a better leaving group, the bond between the oxygen and this carbon is going to reform, giving us a ketone and expelling this group...
