Sodium Borohydride Reduction of Aldehydes to Alcohols
Draw the isomeric pentanols (C5H12O) that can be synthesized via a sodium borohydride reduction of an aldehyde. In your experiment you use ligroin in a trituration. a. What could be used besides ligroin. b. What is chemically occurring when you use the ligroin? The experiment was a Grignard experiment. I am having a hard
