A. The name of the product compound is pinacalone. The reaction and reagent required for the reaction are given below HO OH 0 -H20 pinacol In IR spectrum, a strong IR band at around 1705-1725 cm1 corresponds to C-o group was seen as well as C-H streatching at 2850-2950 cm was also noticed. B. Common name of the starting material is Pinacol. The name of the reaction is pinacol-pinacalone rearrangment. C. Mechanism for the reaction H

Explanation / Answer

a) Atom economy is calculated using the below formula

Atom economy= (mass of atoms in the desired products/ mass of atoms in the reactants) x 100 %

Atom economy= (100.16/ 118.17) x 100 %

Atom economy=84.75 %
