Question
Chapter 11, Problem 33P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The compounds formed when each of the given ethers is refluxed with excess hydrobromic acid are to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Ethers when react with hydrobromic acid undergo cleavage of the carbon–oxygen bond.
In the case of cyclic ethers, the ring gets opened when hydro bromic acid reacts.
