Question

1) 1-bromobutane will undergo reactions when heated, as shown by reactions A and B                                        

 

                                                   CH3CH2CH2CH2Br

                                        A                                                  B

                     CH3CH2CH2CH2OH                         CH3CH2CH=CH2


a)For reactions A and B give the reagents used in each case.
b)Reaction A was repeated using 1-iodobutane instead of 1-bromobutane, Explain any difference in the
rate of reaction observed.
C)What type of organic reaction is A?
d) Show the mechanism for reaction A
e)Reaction A was repeated with 2-bromo-2-methylpropane instead of 1-bromobutane.
i)Name the organic compound formed
ii) The mechanism of the reaction with 2-bromo-2-methylpropane differs from the mechanism of
reaction A. Describe how the mechanisms differ.
f)What type of reaction is B?
g)If reaction B was repeated with 2-bromobutane, name the other organic products that can form as
well as the product shown above.
