Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

The alcohols formed when each compound is treated with NaBH4 in CH3OHare mentioned below:

Step by step solution

01

Step-by-Step Solution Step 1: Function of NaBH4

Sodium borohydride is a 鈥渟trong reducing agent鈥� that reduces ketone into secondary alcohol and aldehyde into primary alcohol.

02

Mechanism of the reducing action of NaBH4

The B-H is weakly polar, the hydride present inNaBH4 acts as a nucleophile, and as a result, it can readily attack the carbonyl carbon center to yield alcohol.

03

Explanation

Based on the explanations, the alcohols formed when each compound is treated with NaBH4 in CH3OH are mentioned below:
