Concept explainers

Ethers (R-O-R’) are compounds formed by replacing hydrogen atoms of an alcohol (R-OH compound) or a phenol (C6H5OH) by an aryl/ acyl group (functional group after removing single hydrogen from an aromatic ring). In this section, reaction, preparation and…

Epoxides

Epoxides are a special class of cyclic ethers which are an important functional group in organic chemistry and generate reactive centers due to their unusual high reactivity. Due to their high reactivity, epoxides are considered to be toxic and mutagenic…

Williamson Ether Synthesis

An organic reaction in which an organohalide and a deprotonated alcohol forms ether is known as Williamson ether synthesis. Alexander Williamson developed the Williamson ether synthesis in 1850. The formation of ether in this synthesis is an SN2 reaction…

Textbook Question

Chapter 21, Problem 35P

In protic solvents the naphthoxide ion (I) is alkylated primarily at position 1 (C-alkylation) whereas in polar aprotic solvents, such as DMF, the product is almost exclusively the result of a conventional Williamson ether synthesis (O-alkylation):

Chapter 21, Problem 35P, In protic solvents the naphthoxide ion (I) is alkylated primarily at position 1 (C-alkylation)
