- 14-71 The mechanism of the acid-catalyzed dehydration of an alcohol to an alkene is the reverse of the acid- catalyzed hydration of an alkene. The dehydration mechanism occurs by the following three steps. Step 1: Add a proton. Step 2: Break a bond to form stable molecules or ions. Step 3: Take away a proton. These three steps are illustrated here by the dehydration of 2-butanol to give 2-butene. Use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons in each step; that is, show how each bond-making or bond-breaking step occurs.

(a) Phenols and alcohols have in common the presence of an —OH group. Phenols are weak acids and react with strong bases to give water-soluble salts. The pK„ of phenol is smaller than that of acetic acid. Autoxidation converts an R—H group to an R—OH group. A carbon radical has only seven electrons in the valence shell of one of its carbons, and this carbon bears a positive charge. (f, A characteristic of a chain initiation step is conversion of a nonradical to a radical. Autoxidation is a radical-chain reaction. A characteristic of the chain propagation step is reaction of a radical and a molecule to form a new radical and a new molecule. Vitamin E and other natural antioxidants function by interrupting the cycle of chain propagation steps that occurs in autoxidation.arrow_forward

- 16-19 2-Me thy 1 propane (bp -12°C), 2-propanol (bp 82°C), and 2-propanamine (bp 32°C) all have approximately the same molecular weight, yet their boiling points are quite different.

Alkenes B and C can each be separated into cis and trans isomers. Upon catalytic reduction using H,, in the presence of a transition metal catalyst (Ni, Pd, or Pt>, alkenes A, B, and C all give hexane as the only product. Acid- catalyzed hydration of alkene C gives one alcohol with the molecular formula CeH14O. Acid catalyzed- hydration of alkene B gives an equal mixture of two alcohols, each with the molecular formula C6H14O. Acid-catalyzed hydration of alkene C gives only a single alcohol with the molecular formula C6H14O. Propose structural formulas for alkenes A, B, and C and the alcohols formed by acid-catalyzed hydration of each, consistent with these experimental results.arrow_forward
