Why The 2-Pentanol Is A Concentrated Hydrochloric Acid
Questions
1. No, the 2-pentanol is a secondary alcohol that reacts more slowly plus it requires moderate heating and an acidic catalyst. The 1-pentanol is a primary alcohol require more extreme conditions of temperatures and more active catalysts for conversion to halides. The 2-methyl-2-butanol reacted with the concentrated hydrobromic acid due to the fact that it is a more stable tertiary alcohol which can react at room temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and with an absence of a catalyst. The Lucas test helps determine the reactivity of alcohols and classifies them. The test uses the Lucas reagent that is composed of an anhydrous zinc chloride in concentrated hydrochloric acid.
2. The results of the alkoxide-promoted eliminations would change
