Chapter 10, Problem 10.42P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A mechanism for the given conversion has to be shown.

Concept Introduction:

Acid-catalyzed dehydration of alcohols: An alcohol can be converted into an alkene by dehydration (with elimination of water from adjacent carbon). By heating alcohol with either 85% phosphoric acid or concentrated sulfuric acid. Primary alcohol require high temperature as high as 180oC whereas secondary alcohol require somewhat lower temperature. Acid-catalyzed dehydration of tertiary alcohols often requires temperature only slightly above room temperature.

Ease of dehydration of alcohols:

The ease of acid-catalyzed dehydration of alcohols is in the order as follows,

1oalcohol<2oalcohol < 3oalcohol

Ozonolysis: The unsaturated bonds of alkene, alkyne, or azo compounds are cleaved with ozone which multiple C-C bonds been replaced by carbonyl group.

Predict the major products of this reaction: ་ ་ + H NaOH ? Δ excess Note that the second reactant is used in excess, that is, there is much more of the second reactant than the first. If there won't be any products, just check the box under the drawing area instead.
P A student claims the right-hand side of the reaction in the drawing area below shows the product of a Claisen condensation. • If the student is correct, complete the reaction by adding the necessary organic reactants to the left-hand side, and by adding any necessary reagents and reaction conditions above and below the arrow. • If the student is incorrect, because it's not possible to obtain this product from a Claisen condensation, check the box under the drawing area instead. those that will minimize any byproducts or competing • Note for advanced students: If you have a choice, use the most efficient reactants and reagents reactions. - ☐ ☐ : ☐ + I Х Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
