Question
Chapter 15, Problem 39P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reactant molecule for the synthesis of cyclohexene derivative is to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
The catalyst used is the Grubbs catalyst
Ring closing metathesis for olefins also takes place in which two double bonds belong to the same molecule. In this intramolecular reaction, a new ring is formed.
Most of the times, the reactant molecule contain terminal double bonds. When these terminal double bond reacts, they exchange methylene groups to produce ethylene which bubbles away from the reaction medium.
In this reaction, the cleavage of the double bonds in the reactant alkene molecule occurs and these fragments are redistributed to form new two carbon-carbon double bonds.
In this reaction, new

One synthetic advantage of olefin metathesis is that the catalyst tolerates a variety of functional groups in the reactant. In a synthesis of the antiinfluenza drug Tamiflu (oseltamivir), ring-closing metathesis was used to prepare the highly functionalized cyclohexene derivative shown. What was the reactant?
Quinapril (trade name Accupril) is used to treat high blood pressure andcongestive heart failure. One step in the synthesis of quinapril involvesreaction of the racemic alkyl bromide A with a single enantiomer of theamino ester B.
Given the structure of quinapril, which one of these two products isneeded to synthesize the drug?

In the reaction, a triphenylphosphorine ylide, also called a phosphorane, adds to an aldehyde/ketone to give a four-membered cyclic intermediate called an oxaphosphetane. The oxaphosphetane is not isolated but instead spontaneously decomposes to release triphenylphosphine oxide and an alkene. Ph3P-CHCH3 H3C The ylide is formed by reaction of triphenylphosphine, a good nucleophile, with a primary alkyl halide in an S 2 reaction, followed by deprotonation of the carbon with a strong base, such as butyllithium. The carbonyl carbon and the carbon originally bonded to the halogen become the two carbons with the double bond in the product alkene :0: CH3 Com The real value of the Wittig reaction lies in its ability to yield an alkene of predictable structure, as the C-C bond is precisely where the C=O bond was in the reactant and no isomers (other than…arrow_forward
