Answer 2

Answer:

But-1-ene is converted to 2-flurobutane by hydrolysis and substitution of the hydroxyl group.

Explanation:

• But-1-ene is first converted to butan-2-ol by reacting it with hydronium ion.
• The reaction is CH₃-CH₂-CH=CH₂ + H₃O⁺ → CH₃-CH₂-CHOH-CH₃
• Now, this 2-butanol is reacted with hydrogen fluoride to replace the OH⁻ group with F.
• The HF molecule is split into H⁺ and F⁻.
• The OH⁻ group from the alcohol gets removed and combines with H⁺ to form a water molecule.
• The F⁻ ion attacks the carbocation formed due to the removal of the OH⁻ group and forms 2-fluorobutane.
• The reaction is CH₃-CH₂-CHOH-CH₃ + HF → CH₃-CH₂-CHF-CH₃

The general reaction can be written as follows:

1. But-1-ene + H₃O⁺ → 2-Butanol

2. 2-Butanol + HF → 2-fluorobutane
