Suggest structures for X and Y in the reaction sequence given in Fig. P18.76 (p. 942)

Chapter 18, Problem 18.76

(choose chapter or problem)

Suggest structures for X and Y in the reaction sequence given in Fig. P18.76 (p. 942), including their stereochemistry. Suggest a mechanism for the formation of Y. Notice that aluminum (Al) is just below boron (B) in the periodic table; to predict X, imagine that the Al is a B and ask how that compound would react with an alkene. (Hint: See Secs. 5.4B and 14.5B.)
