Reactions of Ethers

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 behavior of ethers are discussed in the context of organic chemistry.

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.

When naphthalene undergoes an irreversible electrophilic aromatic substitution, such as a Friedel–Crafts acylation, the major product is the kinetic product,which proceeds through the most stable arenium ion intermediate. InSection 23.7, we mentioned that substitution is generally favored at the αposition over the β position, which means that the arenium ion is more stable when the electrophile attaches to the α position. Explain this difference in arenium ion stabilities. Hint: Draw out allresonance structures for each arenium ion intermediate. Does each one have the same number of resonancestructures? How many resonance structures of each intermediate preserve the aromaticity?
