Designing a Synthesis

Organic synthesis is a branch of chemical synthesis that involves the planned construction of organic compounds/molecules from smaller units that possess functional groups. Friedrich Wöhler was the first scientist who designed the synthesis of an organic compound, urea from inorganic starting materials silver cyanate with ammonium chloride via a simple, one-step synthesis.

Question

The following flow chart connects three of the reactions we have discussed that involve carbocation intermediates. Each arrow may represent more than one elementary step in a mechanism.Arrows 1 and 2 summarize the conversion of alcohols to alkyl halides, 3 and 4 the dehydrohalogenation of an alkyl halide to an alkene by the E1 mechanism, and 1 and 4 the formation of an alkene by dehydration of an alcohol. The reaction indicated by arrow 5 constitutes a major focus of the next chapter. There we will explore reactions that give overall addition to the double bond by way of carbocation intermediates.
