(a)
Interpretation: Synthesis of
Concept Introduction: Organometallic reagents of lithium used in the formation of alcohol by reacting with carbonyl compounds. In organometallic reagent, the alkyl part is negatively charged which acts as a nucleophile and attacks the carbonyl carbon to form alcohol.
In this reaction, the number of carbons in the carbonyl chain increases.
(b)
Interpretation: Synthesis of
Concept Introduction: Organometallic reagents of magnesium that is Grignard reagent (RMgX) used in the formation of alcohol by reacting with carbonyl compounds. In organometallic reagent, the alkyl part is negatively charged which acts as a nucleophile and attacks the carbonyl carbon to form alcohol.
