Product Information
(R)-3-Oxocyclopentanecarboxylic acid is an organic compound that is chiral and optically active. It is a cyclic ketone that belongs to the group of allylic alcohols. The reaction vessel in this multistep synthesis can be either a large flask or a tube (e.g., round-bottom flask). The first step involves reacting an alkene with a strong base, such as lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) or sodium hydride, to generate an alkyl lithium species. This lithium species then reacts with the appropriate electrophile to form the desired product. In this case, the electrophile is an alcohol that contains two alkene bonds. The reaction proceeds via a sequential mechanism with the addition of each reactant and subsequent elimination byproduct. This process also generates an enantiomer of 3-oxocyclopentanecarboxylic acid due to its chir
