How are the following conversions carried out? (i) Propene → Propan-2-ol (ii) Benzyl chloride → Benzyl alcohol (iii) Ethyl magnesium chloride → Propan-1-ol. (iv) Methyl magnesium bromide → 2-Methylpropan-2-ol.
Answers
(i) Propene → Propan-2-ol
If propene is reacted with water in the presence of an acid as a catalyst, then propan-2-ol is produced.
(ii) Benzyl chloride → Benzyl alcohol
If benzyl chloride is treated with NaOH followed by acidification then benzyl alcohol is obtained.
(iii) Ethyl magnesium chloride → Propan-1-ol.
When ethyl magnesium chloride is reacted with methanal, on hydrolysis gives propan-1-ol.
(iv) Methyl magnesium bromide → 2-Methylpropan-2-ol.
When methyl magnesium bromide is reacted with propane, on hydrolysis gives 2-methyl propane-2-ol.
