Chapter 4, Problem
The sec-butyl cation can react as both a Brønsted-Lowry acid (a proton donor) and a Lewis acid (an electron pair acceptor) in the presence of a water–sulfuric acid mixture. In each case, however, the product is different. The two reactions are as follows:
- (a) In which reaction(s) does this cation react as a Lewis acid? In which reaction(s) does it react as a Brønsted-Lowry acid?
- (b) Write Lewis structures for reactants and products and show by the use of curved arrows how each reaction occurs.
