Step 1: First draw out a carbocation on the C-2 position of butane using the expected empty orbital you would predict. Step 2: Illustrate an example of hyperconjugation using the correct orbital overlap. One example of the process is sufficient. Step 3: Explain why this type of interaction could not occur in a methyl carbocation, using an orbital explanation.

Phenol and other derivatives with a single hydroxyl group on the aromatic ring are not easily oxidized to form a ketone. Why is this? Select all that apply: O Phenol is a secondary alcohol; secondary alcohols do not oxidize. O The carbon that the hydroxyl group is attached to in phenol does not have a hydrogen attached. Forming a double bond between the oxygen and the carbon would require breaking up the stable aromatic ring. Phenol is a tertiary alcohol, which does not oxidize.
