- 10arrow_forwardTreatment of W with CH3Li, followed by CH3I, affords compound Y (C7H14O) as the major product. Y shows a strong absorption in its IR spectrum at 1713 cm−1, and its 1H NMR spectrum is given below. (a) Propose a structure for Y. (b) Draw a stepwise mechanism for the conversion of W to Y.arrow_forwardDraw a detailed mechanism for the following transformation: HBr heat OH Brarrow_forward
- Propose a possible reaction mechanism for the following transformation. Draw out the steps with the correct reaction arrows.arrow_forwardPropose an efficient synthesis for the follwoing transformation. You may use any reagent you need. You do need to show mechanism and products for each individual reaction.arrow_forwardDraw an E1 mechanism for the following reaction. Draw the structure of the transition state for each step.arrow_forward
- Please complete parts A and Barrow_forwardDraw a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction, one step in the synthesis of the cholesterol-lowering drug pitavastatin, marketed in Japan as a calcium salt under the name Livalo.arrow_forwardDraw a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction, which results in the synthesis of bisphenol F (R = H), an additive used in a variety of packaging materials. Bisphenol F is related to BPA (bisphenol A, R = CH3), a reagent used to harden some plastics, now removed from certain baby products because of its estrogen-like activity that can disrupt endocrine pathways.arrow_forward
