Chapter 14, Problem 14.77P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of the alcohol should be identified which gives $C{H}_3-C{H}_2-C{H}_2-C{H}_2-C{H}_2-CH=C{H}_2$ only as the product in dehydration reaction and $C{H}_3-{(C{H}_2)}_{5}C{O}_{2}H$ as the product of oxidation with $K_{2}C{r}_2{O}_7$.

Concept Introduction:

Alcohol- is an organic compound contains the group of $OH$ , bonded to a tetrahedral C atom. Alcohols are classified as $1^0,2^0\text{ or }{3}^0$ by the number of C atoms bonded to the C with the OH group.

  $1^0$ alcohols - Consist an OH group on a carbon bonded to one carbon.

  $2^0$ alcohols - Consist an OH group on a carbon bonded to two carbons.

  $3^0$ alcohols - Consist an OH group on a carbon bonded to three carbons.

Reaction of alcohol with $H_{2}S{O}_4$ will form unsaturated alkenes and the reaction is known as dehydration reaction.

Reaction of alcohols with $H_{2}S{O}_4$ follows the Zaitsev rule.

Reaction of alcohol with $K_{2}C{r}_2{O}_7$ will form carbonyl compounds and the reaction is known as oxidation reaction.
