The following compound undergoes an intramolecular reaction to form ethene and a product with a five-membered ring. Identify the product and the catalyst used to carry out the reaction.
Hydration of aldehydes and ketones can be catalyzed by acid
or base. Bases catalyze hydration by:
protonating the carbonyl oxygen
making the carbonyl group more electrophilic
employing hydroxide ion, which is a better nucleophile than water
making the carbonyl group less electrophilic
shifting the equilibrium position of the reaction to favor products
The acid-catalyzed dehydration of 2,3-dimethyl-3-pentanol yields three alkene products. What are the names of the three alkenes?
Which of the three alkenes is the major product?
