- Write the equations for the preparation of alcohols by reacting a) propene with sulfuric acid and water b) chlorocyclohexane and sodium hydroxide Write the equations for the reaction of phenoxybenzene with hot concentrated HCIarrow_forwardWhich alcohols can be prepared as a single product by hydroboration–oxidation of an alkene? Which alcohols can be prepared as a singleproduct by the acid-catalyzed addition of H2O to an alkene?arrow_forwardPrimary alcohols can react with certain alkenes to give ethers. If a primary alcohol reacts with dihydropyran in the presence of acid only Product A is formed. Why is A formed over B? And what is the product of the reaction if N-propyl alcohol is the alcohol? H+ + FOR H OR A + B OR Harrow_forward
