Draw the molecules.
Draw the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed dehydration of 2-methyl-hexan-2-ol with arrows please.
. Draw the products for addition reactions (label as major or minor) of
the reaction between 2-methyl-2-butene and with following reactants :
Steps to follow :
A. These are addition reactions you need to break a double bond and make two
products if possible.
B. As of Markovnikov rule the hydrogen should go to that double bond carbon
which has more hydrogen to make stable products or major product.
