Chapter 7.4, Problem 7.7TIY
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The major substitution product that would result from reaction of
Concept introduction: Tertiary Haloalkane is a typical example for unimolecuar substitution. It proceeds via two-step mechanism. The first slow step that determines rate is the removal of leaving group from the substrate haloalkane and generates a carbocation. Since the rate is only governed by substrate alone and no other nucleophile or solvent it is termed as unimolecuar substitution. The final step is attack of nucleophile on carbocation generated and formation of racemic products.

You lab partner mis-read the lab procedure. Instead of mixing 2-naphthol and sodium hydroxide prior to adding 1-bromobutane, all three reagents were mixed simultaneously together. Due to this error, you isolated less amount of the desired product, 2-butoxynaphthalene, and an undesired elimination product. Predict the structure of this elimination product and propose a mechanism for its formation.
In the reaction series below, write down the appropriate reagents that can be used where there are question marks.
