Question

e an efficient multi-step synthesis for the following molecule starting from the compourd shown on the left, Include all necessary reagents, and show all intermediates A mechanism is not required. (5 points) OH

Answer 1

1) PCC is the first reagent we are using for the selective oxidation of OH group.

2) then use any chlorinating agent like PCl5 which will remove one hydrohen.

3) allow the chlorinated product to react with anilinium ion which remove HCl to get the product.

in the image after the last (final arrow) the answer is the product of the reaction mentioned in question.
