If PhBr was in the stockroom then (Ph)-Culi True False i) Vs could be an "Off the Shelf" reagent Will reduce Pyruvic Acid to a 2° alcohol Grignards perform conjugate addition with LiAIH4 NaBH vs False k) True vs MVK

Explanation / Answer

(i)

(1) Ture

Bromobenzene can be kept on stockroom but (Ph)2CuLi, it is a Gilmann reagent and it is very reactive and should be kept in an isolated place.

(j)

(1) LiAlH4

LiAlH4 reduces the carboxylic acid but NaBH4 can only reduce aldehydes and ketones.

(k)

(2) False
