Question

Design a synthesis of 2-cyclohexenone from 2-methylcyclopentanone.

Answer 1

Answer:

Check attachment for the drawing showing the pathway of the reaction.

Explanation:

=====> 2-cyclohexenone is a chemical compound of Density of 993 kg/m³, and the chemical formula of Formula is C6H8O. Also, the Solubility in water of 2-cyclohexenone is equal to 41.3 kg/m³.

=====>2-methylcyclopentanone is a chemical compound of Density which is equal to 0.917 g/mL and a Boiling Point of 141.6±8.0 °C at 760 mmHg.

Both 2-methylcyclopentanone and 2-cyclohexenone belongs to the same alkanone functional group or should it be said that they have the same functional group.
