The stereochemistry of the products of reduction depends on the reagent used, as you learned in Sections 20.5 and 20.6. With this in mind, how would you convert 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone [CH3COC(CH3)3] to: (a) racemic 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanol [CH3CH(OH)C(CH3)3]; (b) only (2R)-3,3-dimethyl-2-butanol; (c) only (2S)-3,3-dimethyl-2-butanol?
