Write chemical equations for the following reactions :

(a) Hydroboration – oxidation reaction
(b) Williamson Synthesis
(c) Friedel-Crafts Alkylation of Anisole
(d) Reimer-Tiemann Reaction

Ans.

(a) Hydroboration-oxidation reaction: RCH=CH2+BH3⋅THF→RCH2CH2OH RCH2CH2OH+H2O2,NaOH→RCH2CHOH+H2O

(b) Williamson synthesis: R-X+NaOR→R-OR+NaX

(c) Friedel-Crafts alkylation of anisole: C6H5OCH3+R-X+AlCl3→C6H5OR+HCl

(d) Reimer-Tiemann reaction: PhOH+CHCl3+NaOH→PhOH-CHO+HCl+NaCl
