Answer

The reagents needed to convert (CH3)2CHCH2COCI into each compound are shown in the following method:

a.

b.

c.

d.

Step by step solution

01

Step-by-Step Solution Step 1: Use of organometallic reagents

Many nucleophilic reactions use organometallic reagents to get products such as alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones.

02

Choosing the suitable organometallic reagents

The retrosynthetic pathway is analyzed to obtain the right starting materials. When the product formed is a carbonyl compound, you use organocuprate since it stops the reaction at the carbonyl stage.

If the product formed is alcohol, you use the Grignard reagent since it does not stop the reaction at the aldehyde stage.

03
