A student attempted to prepare 1-chlorobutane by mixing 1-butanol with NaCl in acetone. Was the student succesful? Explain.
Some alcohols undergo rearrangement or other unwanted side reactions when they dehydrate in acid. Alcohols may be dehydrated under mildly basic conditions using phosphorus oxychloride (POCl3) in pyridine. The alcohol reacts with phosphorus oxychloride much like it reacts with tosyl chloride, displacing a chloride ion from phosphorus to give an alkyl dichlorophosphate ester. The dichlorophosphate group is an outstanding leaving group. Pyridine reacts as a base with the dichlorophosphate ester to give an E2 elimination. Propose a mechanism for the dehydration of cyclohexanol by POCl3 in pyridine.
Predict the major organic product of the reaction sequence described.
Styrene (1.53 g, 0.011 mol) in methanol (30 mL) was added to a mixture of Hg(OAc)2
(5.30 g, 0.016 mol) in methanol (100 mL) at room temp. and stirred for 24 hours. Sodium hydroxide (3.0 M, 16 mL) was added, followed by NaBH4 (0.32 g, 0.008 mol) in NaOH (3.0 M, 16 mL) at 0 °C. The precipitated Hg was removed by filtration. The product was isolated by diethyl ether extraction. After drying over Na2SO4, solvent was removed and distillation gave the product
