Question
Chapter 9, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason should be explained for not finding of ethyl alcohol as a product when diethyl ether reacts with hydrogen iodide.
Concept introduction:
Ethers:
An oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups is called as ether. The general formula of ether is R–O–R′, where R and R′ group either alkyl or aryl groups.
Ethyl methyl ether is reaction with hydrogen iodide which yields methyl iodide and ethyl alcohol which is shown below,

When ethyl ether is heated with excess HI for several hours, the only organic product obtained is ethyl iodide. Explain why ethyl alcohol is not obtained as a product
Ethyl butyrate, CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3, is an artificial fruit flavor commonly used in the food industry for such flavors as orange and pineapple. Its fragrance and taste are often associated with fresh orange juice, and thus it is most commonly used as orange flavoring.It can be produced by the reaction of butanoic acid with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst (H+):
CH3CH2CH2CO2H(l)+CH2CH3OH(l)H+⟶CH3CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3(l)+H2O(l)
a) Given 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol, how many grams of ethyl butyrate would be synthesized, assuming a complete 100% yield?
b) A chemist ran the reaction and obtained 5.25 g of ethyl butyrate. What was the percent yield?
c) The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be produced from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol?
