Experiment 5B: Ketone Reduction Objective: Using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent‚ the ketone 4-tert-butylcyclohexane is reduced to its corresponding alcohol. It is purified through extraction techniques to give the cis and trans diasteromer products. Procedure: The procedure was followed as outlined in Mayo’s book for Experiment 5B with the following modifications: 1. Reagents and Equipment – The reaction will be on a scale of 2X what is described in the text. 2. Reagents and Equipment

impact of FDI on poverty reduction FDI’s direct impacts on poverty may work through providing opportunities‚ particularly providing jobs and training to local workers. To the extent that foreign capital inflows do not replace local investment absolutely and foreign investment takes the mode of green- field investment FDI may contribute to reducing existing unemployment and underemployment‚ providing people with income and therefore directly contributing to poverty reduction.
