Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The product formed by the reaction of pentanal with NaBH4, CH3OH is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: The substitution reaction involves the replacement of one functional group by other functional group. In nucleophilic substitution an electron rich species attack the species that is deficient in electrons. The electrophile and the leaving group together form a substrate. The nucleophile attacks over the substrate and there occurs the removal of leaving group from the substrate.
