Question
Chapter 8.8, Problem 8.19E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:The retrosynthetic analysis should be applied to
Concept introduction:Retrosynthetic analysis involves transformation of target molecule into simple precursor that can be used as substrate for the synthesis of target molecule. The bonds broken generate molecules called synthons or synthetic equivalent. The latter term is designated to indicate their use as substrate in synthesis. For instance, the synthons generated in phenylacetic acid are given as follows:

- OChem help with IUPAC names involving Ph and Bn The phenyl group (Ph-R, C6H5-R) can be formed by removing a hydrogen from benzene and attaching a substituent to where the hydrogen was removed. The benzyl group (abbv. Bn), similar to the phenyl group, is formed by manipulating the benzene ring. In the case of the benzyl group, it is formed by taking the phenyl group and adding a CH2 group to where the hydrogen was removed.
