Where Phosphoric acid donates a proton ((H^+)) to the hydroxyl group of cyclohexanol, forming a protonated cyclohexanol intermediate. • The protonated cyclohexanol undergoes dehydration, leading to the removal of a water molecule and the formation of cyclohexene. • The released proton combines with water to form hydronium ion (H3O+), regenerating the catalyst. The mechanism should illustrate the acid-catalyzed dehydration process, where phosphoric acid facilitates the removal of water from cyclohexanol, resulting in the formation of cyclohexene.arrow_forwardEthanolamine ammonia lyase, a coenzyme B12–requiring enzyme, catalyzes the following reaction.
