Give a systematic (IUPAC) name for each alcohol. Classify each as primary, secondary, or tertiary.
A formate ester, such as ethyl formate, reacts with an excess of a Grignard reagent to give (after protonation) secondary alcohols with two identical alkyl groups.
a. Propose a mechanism to show how the reaction of ethyl formate with an excess of allylmagnesium bromide gives, after protonation, hepta-1,6-dien-4-ol.
b. Show how you would use reactions of Grignard reagents with ethyl formate to synthesize the following secondary alcohols.
i. pentan-3-ol
ii. diphenylmethanol
iii. trans, trans-nona-2,7-dien-5-ol
