Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The chemical equation of primary alcoholwith each of the given reagents is to be written.
Concept Introduction:
When alcohol treated with hydrogen halide typically undergoes nucleophilic substitution reaction to yield
Primary alcohol proceeds via
Alcohol reacts with sodium azide to yield sodium alkonate.
Alcohol reacts with sodium bromide in the presence of sulfuric acid and heat to yield alkyl halide.
When three moles of alcohol reacts with phosphorus tribromide to yield alkyl halide with phosphorous acid and hydrogen bromide.
When alcohols treated with thionyl chlorides react to yield alkyl chloride with sulfur dioxide and hydrogen chloride.
When alcohols treated with methyl sulfonyl chloride in the presence of pyridine react to yield butyl methanesulfonate.
