Step by step solution

01

Organocuprate Reagent.

Organocuprate reagent (RCuLi) is synthesized from organolithium reagent (RLi).

Organocuprate reagents are very useful for converting alkyl halide into alkanes, e.g.

1-bromobutane with organocuprate reagent (CH3)2 CuLi bromine is replaced by the methyl group and thus forms pentane, shown below:

02

Subpart (a) The reagent used for the given reaction.

In the product, four-carbon chain butane is coupled to the given reactant iodobenzene.

Here, the organocuprate reagent used isCH3CH2CH2|CH32CuLi

Alkyl cuprate reagent

03

Subpart (b) The reagent used for the given reaction.

In the product, ethene is coupled to the given reactant 3-Bromo-2-butanone.

Here, the organocuprate reagent used is (CH2=CH2)2CuLi .
