- Alcohols are very useful starting materials for the production of many different compounds. The following conversions, starting with 1-butanol, can be carried out in two or more steps. Show the steps (reactants/catalysts) you would follow to carry out the conversions, drawing the formula for the organic product in each step. For each step, a major product must be produced. (See Exercise 62.) (Hint: In the presence of H+, an alcohol is converted into an alkene and water. This is the exact reverse of the reaction of adding water to an alkene to form an alcohol.) a. 1-butanol butane b. 1-butanol 2-butanonearrow_forwardYields in organic reactions are sometimes low.

- 40. Deuterium oxide, D20, is water that contains the stable hydrogen isotope 2H, usually shown as D. When dissolved in deuterium oxide, ethanol undergoes the following reaction: * CH3CH2OH + D½0 → CH;CH2OD + HOD What is the best way of showing that this reaction has occurred? A. By testing the product with phosphorus pentachloride and not getting steamy fumes. B. By determining the mass spectrum of the mixture and showing peaks at m/z values of 20 and 46. C. By fractionally distilling the mixture and determining the amount of CH3CH2OD using a Geiger counter. D. By determining the mass spectrum of the mixture and showing peaks at m/z values by 19 and 47.
