The reaction below is unsuccessful in producing the desired alcohol.
How may the reaction conditions be changed to allow the desired alcohol product to form?
Propose the synthesis of the following compound using the given starting material. Please note that the reaction needs a protecting group.
Acetals can be used as protecting groups for aldehydes, ketones, and diols. The acetal formed with acetone and diol is termed acetonide. Draw the structure of acetonide formed by the acid-catalyzed reaction of acetone with the following diol.
It is possible to selectively hydrogenate alkenes with the presence of ketones in the same molecule. Supposing that was not the case, suggest a strategy to generate (i) from (ii) with the use of a protecting group.
Give a synthetic scheme that would accomplish the following transformation. Use whatever reagents are needed.
