Practice Problems correction
Hello all,In the practice problems for the final, the last synthesis question, 5d, make the following two changes:
a) 2-methylpropene should be one of the starting materials--chemical formula: (H3C)2C=CH2
b) The final product should have one less carbon (remove one of the methylene carbons between the nitrogen and the benzylic carbon)
Sorry about that!
