De most common method for the synthesis of unsymmetrical ethers is the Williamson synthesis, a reaction
(SN2) of an alkoxide ion with an alkyl halide. Two pathways are possible, but often one is preferred. Construct
the preferred pathway for the synthesis of 2-propoxypropane from propene, with propene-derived alkyl halide
and alkoxide intermediates, by dragging the appropriate intermediates and reagents into their bins. Not every
given reagent or intermediate will be used.
