How is propanone converted into-

(i) Propan - 2 - ol
(ii) 2 - Methylpropan - 2 - ol?

Open in App

Solution

1) Propanone to Propan -2-ol

$C H_{3} - O | | C - C H_{3} L i A L H_{4}, T H F - ------- \to H^{+}, H_{2} O C H_{3} - O H | C H - C H_{3}$

2) Propanone to 2-methylpropon 2-ol.

$C H_{3} - O | | C - C H_{3} C H_{3} M g B r - ----- \to - C H_{3} - O M g B r | C | C H_{3} - C H_{3} H_{2} O - - \to H^{+} C H_{3} - O H | C | C H_{3} - C H_{3}$
