CH3 CH3 MsCI OMs Alcohols react with sulfonyl chlorides to form sulfonate esters. Only the O-H bond of the alcohol is broken in the reaction, and so no inversion of configuration occurs. The resulting sulfonate esters are reactive in Svl and SN2 reactions since the sulfonate group is a very weak base and is therefore a good leaving group.

Rearrangements can occur during the dehydration of 1° alcohols even though no 1° carbocation is formed—that is, a 1,2-shift occurs as the C − OH2+ bond is broken, forming a more stable 2° or 3° carbocation, as shown. Using this information, draw a stepwise mechanism that shows how CH3CH2CH2CH2OH is dehydrated with H2SO4 to form a mixture of CH3CH2CH = CH2 and the cis and trans isomers of CH3CH = CHCH3. We will see another example of this type of rearrangement in Section 18.5C.
Heating an alcohol in the presence of sulfuric or phosphoric acid will cause a dehydration to occur: the removal of the elements of water from a molecule, forming an alkene. The reaction usually follows an E1 mechanism. The SN1 pathway is suppressed, both by heating the reaction mixture (more energy promotes the elimination pathway) and by using a strong acid whose conjugate base is a poor nucleophile. Draw curved arrow(s) to show how the alcohol reacts with phosphoric acid.
Please fill out for each reaction i.Fill in the missing starting materials, products, or reagents as necessary.If no reaction occurs, write "N.R." and explain why this is the case. ii. Label each transformation as SN1, SN2, or acid/base. iii. Indicate if the product is racemic or a single enantiomer.

Answer the following question about curcumin, a yellow pigmentisolated from turmeric, a tropical perennial in the ginger family and aprincipal ingredient in curry powder. Most enols, compounds that contain a hydroxy group bonded to a C=C, are unstable and tautomerize to carbonyl groups. Draw the keto form of the enol of curcumin, and explain why the enol is more stable than many other enols.
