Ethers (R-O-R’) are compounds formed by replacing hydrogen atoms of an alcohol (R-OH compound) or a phenol (C6H5OH) by an aryl/ acyl group (functional group after removing single hydrogen from an aromatic ring). In this section, reaction, preparation and…

Epoxides

Epoxides are a special class of cyclic ethers which are an important functional group in organic chemistry and generate reactive centers due to their unusual high reactivity. Due to their high reactivity, epoxides are considered to be toxic and mutagenic…

Williamson Ether Synthesis

An organic reaction in which an organohalide and a deprotonated alcohol forms ether is known as Williamson ether synthesis. Alexander Williamson developed the Williamson ether synthesis in 1850. The formation of ether in this synthesis is an SN2 reaction…

Why do cis -1-bromo-2-ethylcyclohexane and trans -1-bromo-2-ethyklcyclohexane form different major products when they undergo an E2 reaction?

Solution Summary: The author explains that anti-elimination favored in an E2 reaction requires that the two groups on a cyclohexane, being eliminated are parallel, they both must be in axial positions.
