Question Answered step-by-step BACKGROUND : The experiment involved reducing the… BACKGROUND: The experiment involved reducing the 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone back to the diastereomers of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanol, getting different diastereomers based on the two possible faces the hydride can take, either an equatorial approach or axial approach. We performed two sets of reduction reaction conditions, either NaBH4 or MPV conditions, to determine which face is preferred for each. The MPV reduction involved using isopropyl alcohol, acetone, and aluminum isopropoxide. NMR is then performed to find diastereomer ratios of the alcohol. QUESTIONS:1. Provide cis/trans ratio (may be a ratio or a percent) for EACH products from all three reductions. 2. Include a table with all of the following: – NMR table including cis isomer peak, trans isomer peak, and any identifiable impurities.3. identify peaks in the NMR spectrum and any identifiable impurities THE CORNERS ARE LABELED WITH EITHER MVP REACTION OR NaBH4 REACTION OR L-SELECTRIDE ReactionAttached is also how to find the cis:trans diastereomer ratios Image transcription textNaBH4. 4.00 3.51 -3.50 -3.49 3.48 3.473.46 3.45 1H spectrum -7.26 900 800-700 600 500 400 300 -… Show more… Show more Image transcription textNMR The product of each of thesereductions, mixtures of cis andtrans-4-tert- butylcyclohe… Show more… Show more Chemistry Science Organic chemistry CHEM 144 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
