Under strongly acidic conditions, hexane is observed to undergo an isomerization process, during which it is converted into
branched alkanes having the same molecular formula as hexane (C6H₁4). The rate at which each constitutional isomer is produced
is related to the type of acid that is used in the reaction and the degree of mixing that occurs during the reaction (J. Chem. Soc.,
Perkins Trans. 2 1999, 12, 2715-2718).
Step 1
Draw a bond-line structure of hexane.
Draw Your Solution
There are four branched isomers of hexane. Draw bond-line structures of all four of its isomers.
Draw Your Solution
The rate of hydration of 2-butene and 2-methylpropene differ by several orders of magnitude. Please state which alkene is more rapidly hydrated and why.
Identify the characteristics of the acid-catalyzed hydration of an alkene

- Ethyl ethanoate (commonly called ethyl acetate), CH3CO₂C₂H5, is an important solvent used in nail polish remover, lacquers, adhesives, the manufacture of plastics, and even as a food favoring. It is produced from acetic acid and ethanol by the reaction CH3CO₂H + C₂H5OH CH³CO₂C₂H5 + H₂O ethanoic acid (acetic acid) ethanol ethyl ethanoate (ethyl acetate) At 25 °C, Kc = 4.10 for this reaction. In a reaction mixture, the following equilibrium concentrations were observed: [CH3CO₂H] = 0.318 M, [H₂O] = 0.00671 M, and [CH3CO₂C₂H5 ] = 0.702 M.
