The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the reactions as described in the question. ### Step 1: Identify the starting compound The starting compound is **Hex-3-ynal**, which is an aldehyde with a triple bond. The structure can be represented as follows: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-CHO ``` ### Step 2: Reduction with NaBH4 When Hex-3-ynal is treated with **NaBH4** (sodium borohydride), it acts as a reducing agent. The aldehyde group (CHO) will be reduced to a primary alcohol (CH2OH). The structure after this reaction will be: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-CH2OH ``` ### Step 3: Reaction with PBr3 Next, the product from Step 2 is treated with **PBr3** (phosphorus tribromide). This reagent converts the alcohol (CH2OH) into a bromide (CH2Br). The structure after this reaction will be: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-CH2Br ``` ### Step 4: Formation of Grignard Reagent Now, the product from Step 3 is treated with **Mg in ether**. This will form a Grignard reagent by inserting magnesium into the carbon-bromine bond. The structure will now be: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-CH2MgBr ``` ### Step 5: Reaction with CO2 The Grignard reagent formed in Step 4 is then treated with **CO2** (carbon dioxide). The nucleophilic carbon (from the Grignard reagent) will attack the electrophilic carbon of CO2, leading to the formation of a carboxylic acid. The structure after this reaction will be: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-CH2COO^- ``` (Note: The carboxylate ion is formed at this stage.) ### Step 6: Hydrolysis with H+ Finally, the product from Step 5 is treated with **H+** (acidic workup), which will convert the carboxylate ion into a carboxylic acid (COOH). The final product X will be: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-COOH ``` ### Final Structure of Product X The final product X is **Hex-3-ynoic acid**, which has the following structure: ``` CH3-CH2-C≡C-COOH ``` ### Summary of Steps 1. Start with Hex-3-ynal (aldehyde with a triple bond). 2. Reduce with NaBH4 to form an alcohol. 3. Convert the alcohol to a bromide with PBr3. 4. Form a Grignard reagent with Mg in ether. 5. React with CO2 to form a carboxylate. 6. Hydrolyze with H+ to form the final carboxylic acid.
