Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The complete mechanism for the conversion of 30 alcohol given to 30
Concept introduction:
Alcohols get protonated in the presence of strong acids. The protonated intermediate will lose a molecule of water to yield a carbocation. The nucleophilic attack by the halide ion will lead to the formation of the alkyl halide.
To propose:
The complete mechanism for the conversion of 30 alcohol given to 30 alkyl halide by treating with HCl involving two cationic intermediates.
b)
Interpretation:
The complete mechanism for the conversion of 30 alcohol given to 30 alkyl halide by treating with HBr involving two cationic intermediates is to be proposed.
