Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: Starting material and reagent used to prepare the given thiols need to be identified.
Concept introduction: preparation of thiol can be done when
(b)
Interpretation: Starting material and reagent used to prepare the given thiols need to be identified.
Concept introduction: preparation of thiol can be done when alkyl halide reacts with sodium hydrosulfide. The reaction follows the SN2 mechanism. Here, the substitution of the SH group takes place, and halide act as leaving group. Since it is an SN2 reaction, thus, inversion of the configuration takes place.
