When hexan-1-ol is treated with conc. h2so4 at moderate temperatures, ________ is formed via a(n) ________ mechanism

Sagot :

When hexan-1-ol is treated with conc. H₂SO₄ at moderate temperatures, Di-n-hexyl ether is formed via SN₂ mechanism.

SN₂ Mechanism is mechanism involving the factors of steric hindrance following the order of 1° > 2° > 3°. It is a Nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Williamson Ether Synthesis is the synthesis of ether through SN₂ mechanism in which an ether is treated with conc. H₂SO₄ at moderate temperature.

When hexan-1-ol is treated with conc. H₂SO₄ at moderate temperatures, Di-n-hexyl ether is formed as below:

CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂OH +Conc. H₂SO₄-->(CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂)₂0

Hexan-1-ol                                                                 Di-n-hexyl ether

Williamson Ether Synthesis is a reaction involving a alcohol that is deprotonated to form an ether.
