Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The given alcohol should be classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary.
Concept Introduction:
When alcohol (having hydroxyl group) is attached to a primary carbon atom (carbon atom to which one carbon atom is attached) then such alcohol is said to be a primary alcohol.
When alcohol (having hydroxyl group) is attached to a secondary carbon atom (carbon atom to which two carbon atoms are attached) then such alcohol is said to be a secondary alcohol.
When alcohol (having hydroxyl group) is attached to a tertiary carbon atom (carbon atom to which three carbon atoms are attached) then such alcohol is said to be a tertiary alcohol.
Interpretation:
The given alcohol should be classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary.

- pls helparrow_forwardPROBLEM 11-38 Develop syntheses for the following compounds. As starting materials, you may use cyclopentanol, alcohols containing no more than four carbon atoms, and any common reagents and solvents. (a) trans-cyclopentane-1,2-diol (b) 1-chloro-1-ethyleyclopentane f (c) OCH, CH₂ (e) OCH₂CH₂ C-CH₂CH₂ (1) OCH,arrow_forwardPls helparrow_forward
- Practicing but not sure what I am doing wrongarrow_forward13-25 Answer true or false. (a) Phenols and alcohols have in common the presence of an —OH group. Phenols are weak acids and react with strong bases to give water-soluble salts. The pK„ of phenol is smaller than that of acetic acid. Autoxidation converts an R—H group to an R—OH group. A carbon radical has only seven electrons in the valence shell of one of its carbons, and this carbon bears a positive charge. (f, A characteristic of a chain initiation step is conversion of a nonradical to a radical. Autoxidation is a radical-chain reaction. A characteristic of the chain propagation step is reaction of a radical and a molecule to form a new radical and a new molecule. Vitamin E and other natural antioxidants function by interrupting the cycle of chain propagation steps that occurs in autoxidation.arrow_forwardI need help with part H because I struggle.
