Construct a three-step synthesis of 1,2-epoxycyclopentane from cyclopentanol by dragging the appropriate formulas into the bins.
Note that each bin will hold only one item, and not all of the given reagents or structures will be used.
1 answer:
Answer:
(1) Bromination, (2) E2 elimination and (3) epoxidation
Explanation:
- In the first step, -OH group in cyclopentanol is replaced by more facile leaving group Br by treating cyclopentanol with
- In the second step, E2 elimination in presence of strong base e.g. NaOEt/EtOH produce cyclopentene
- In the third step, treatment of cyclopentene with mCPBA produces 1,2-epoxycyclopentane
- Full reaction scheme has been shown below

<h3>Further explanation </h3>Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume
Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume
With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than objects with a smaller type of mass
The unit of density can be expressed in g/cm³ or kg/m³
Density formula:
ρ = density , g/cm³ or kg/m³
m = mass , g or kg
v = volume , cm³ or m³
A common example is the water density of 1 gr / cm³
The density of copper : 8.96 gr/ml
mass of copper : 29 g
then the volume :
