Acid-catalyzed hydration of 2-Methyl-1-butene yields two alcohols. The major product does not undergo oxidation, while the minor product will undergo oxidation. Explain why, by showing the structures of theproducts.
There are three constitutional isomers with the molecular formula C5H12. When treated with chlorine at 300°C, isomer A gives a mixture of four monochlorination products. Under the same conditions, isomer B gives a mixture of three monochlorination products and isomer C gives only one monochlorination product. From this information, assign structural formulas to isomers A, B, and C.
Suggest a method of preparing ethyl benzene, starting with benzene and ethylene as the only organic reagents.
