Chapter 11.SE, Problem 62AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The product has to be identified when 4-bromo-1-butanol reacts with base.
Concept introduction:
SN2 reaction:
The alcohols is reaction with acids like hydrochloric acid or hydrobromic acid, the bromine atom attacks back side of the carbon atoms in simultaneous manner and which is bearing alcohol group which yield the corresponding product.
Example:
The tosylated compound is reaction with sodium methoxide which undergoes again SN2 type of reaction, the methoxide ion attacks the carbon atom through the back side and provides Inverse configuration of methoxy compound. This is shown below,
Given information:
The given compound is shown below,
