Tertiary alcohols with two identical alkyl groups attached to the alcohol carbon can be made either from an ester and two moles

of a Grignard reagent, or from a ketone and one mole of a Grignard reagent. Use retrosynthetic analysis to suggest one path of each type to synthesize 3‑methyl‑3‑pentanol (or 3‑methylpentan‑3‑ol). Reagent 1 + Reagent 2 ⟶⟶ −→−−H3O+ →H3O+ Route 1: Select an Ester, , and an appropriate Grignard, , to give 3‑methyl‑3‑pentanol (or 3‑methylpentan‑3‑ol) after reaction and an aqueous workup. Route 2: Select a ketone, , and an appropriate Grignard, , to give 3‑methyl‑3‑pentanol (or 3‑methylpentan‑3‑ol) after reaction and an aqueous workup

Answer:

Route 1: In order to obtain 3‑methyl‑3‑pentanol, the reagent 1 should be ethyl acetate (ester) and the reagent 2 should be ethyl magnesium bromide (Grignard).

Route 2: In order to obtain 3‑methyl‑3‑pentanol, the reagent 1 should be 3-pentanone (ketone) and the reagent 2 should be methyl magnesium bromide (Grignard).

Explanation:

In planning a Grignard synthesis it is important to notice the groups attached to the carbon atom bearing the alcohol group.

For route 1 the reagent 1 is an ester thus, the R group chousen will be added twice because the first step form a ketone and the second step form the tertiary alcohol. To obtain 3‑methyl‑3‑pentanol the reagent 1 should be ethyl acetate and the reagent 2 should be ethyl magnesium bromide because of that the only possibility.

For route 2 the reagent 1 is a ketone so, only one R group will be added. One possibility is 3-pentanone  as the ketone and methyl magnesium bromide as Grignard reagent.

how many grams of oxygen gas are needed to produce 10.0 grams of carbon dioxide according to the balanced equation of CH4
Alinara [238K]
Molar mass of :

O2 = 16 * 2 = 32 g/mol

CO2 = 12 + 16 * 2 = 44 g/mol

<span>Balanced chemical equation :
</span>
1 CH4 + 2 O2 = 1 CO2 + 2 H2O
               ↓              ↓
             2 moles     1 mole

2* 32 g O2 ----------> 1* 44 g CO2
     x g O2 ------------> 10.0 g CO2

44 x = 2 * 32*10.0

44 x = 640

x =  \frac{640}{44}

x = 14.54 g of O2

A 2.10 L vessel contains 4.65 mol of nitrous oxide (N2O) at 3.82 atm. What will be the pressure of this gas in a container that’
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.64 atm

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = V1 = 2.1 l

moles = 4.65

Pressure 1 = P1 = 3.82 atm

Volume 2 = Volume 1/2

Pressure 2 = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the new volume

Volume 2 = 2.10/2

Volume 2 = 1.05 l

2.- Use Boyle's law to find the Pressure

             P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for P2

              P2 = P1V1 / V2

-Substitution

              P2 = (3.82)(2.1) / 1.05

-Simplification

              P2 = 8.022/1.05

-Result

              P2 = 7.64 atm
