Draw the major organic product for the reaction of 1-phenylpropan-1-one with the provided phosphonium ylide in part 1. In part 2 answer the question about the transformation.

2-methylene propylbenzene (major product)

Explanation:

This reaction yields olefins and organophosphorus compound and is also known as wittig olefination. The reactants fits the category of a ketone (1-phenylpropan-1-one) and a Wittig reagent (phosphonium ylide).

Part 1: Answer in the fig. Below.

1-phenylpropan-1-one + phosphonium ylide ➡ phenylallyl compound + 2-methylene propylbenzene (major product)

Part 2.

Classical mechanisms that happened during its transformation are thus;

• nucleophilic addition

• Elimination

• cycloaddition

• [2+2]/retro-[2+2] mechanism.

hurricanes form when warm, moist air from the ocean surface quickly rises into the atmosphere and forms storm clouds and rain. when the clouds are formed, heat is released which warms the cool air in the upper regions of the atmosphere so that the cycle can continue. which two phases of the water cycle are repeated in this process?
