How can you use a fossil to indemnify the environment where the organism lived

Climate is one of the factors that determines where different species of plants and animals can live, so paleontologists look for clues to a location's ancient climate in the types of fossil plants and animals they find there. For example, no modern crocodile species lives in a climate with long periods of freezing temperatures, so scientists hypothesize that ancient crocodiles had the same requirement for year round warmth. That leads them to consider the 110-million-year-old crocodile fossils from the Washington, D.C. to be part of a large body of circumstantial evidence that temperatures there were warm year round during the Early Cretaceous. Similarly, coal beds and fossil trees in the Arctic Slope of Alaska are among the many clues that Alaskan temperatures were very warm during the Late Cretaceous.

Please help me with this basic organic conversion.<br>use the shortest way to do it​
jonny [76]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

This conversion must go through a sequence of steps as i have shown in the image attached to this answer.

The acetone is converted to propan-2-ol using LiAlH4, THF and acid. The  propan-2-ol may be converted to propene by E2 elimination. Addition of HBr yields 2-bromo propane.

The Wurtz reaction converts 2-bromo propane to 2,3- dimethyl butane. This can be brominated in the presence of light to yield 3-bromo-2,3-dimethyl butane. Elimination of HBr using a base leads to the formation of the required product as shown.
