Question

How can we prepare acetone from allyl alcohol

Answer 1

Answer:

CH3MgBr(Grignard reagant) + Acetone == Allyl (t-butyl) Alocohol + MgBrCl

Explanation:

In principle, allyl alcohol can be obtained by dehydrogenation of propanol. In the laboratory, it has been prepared by the reaction of glycerol with oxalic or formic acids

Primary alcohols are made from a Grignard reagent and formaldehyde. Secondary alcohols can be made by reacting a Grignard reagent with an aldehyde

Finally, reacting a Grignard reagent with a ketone will generate a tertiary alcohol.

Chemical reaction is

CH3MgBr(Grignard reagant) + Acetone == Allyl (t-butyl) Alocohol + MgBrCl
