Question
Chapter 7, Problem 97IP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The synthesis of 4-Fluorophenylacetonitrile using the SN2 reaction must be provided along with retrosynthetic analysis.
Concept introduction:
Benzylic substrates are very much reactive for the SN2 reaction due to having very less steric crowding which facilitates nucleophilic attack.

Pilocarpine is a medication used in eye drop to manage angle closure glaucoma. It works by
activating cholinergic receptors of the muscarinic type which cause the trabecular meshwork to
open and the aqueous humor to drain from the eye. The diester compound in the left can serve as a
prodrug for pilocarpine. Please provide a mechanism for this conversion using esterase.

Because of its anticoagulant activity for blood, this compound is used as a rodenticide.
The widely used anticoagulant warfarin (see "Chemical Connections: From Moldy
Clover to a Blood Thinner" in Chapter 18) is synthesized from 4-hydroxycoumarin,
benzaldehyde, and acetone as shown in this retrosynthesis. Show how warfarin is
