Write a balanced chemical reaction
identify and label (or name) the base/nucleophile, the electrophile, and the leaving group.
Decide whether the reaction is a substitution or an elimination,, label the reaction as E or S.
2-chloro-3-methylbutane (15.0 mmol) was added to a solution of sodium ethoxide (15.0 mmol) in ethanol (50.0 mL) and heated to reflux for 1 h. The mixture was then cooled to room temperature, neutralized with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (a weak base). 2-methyl-2-butene was isolated by fractional distillation (Tvapor = 35-40 °C)
In this since sodium ethoxide is used as base which is a bulkier and stronger base so the reaction will undergo E2 elimination reaction in which Cl- will be leaving group .
Sodium ethoxide extracts a proton from alpha carbon and simultaneously Cl- leaves thereby forming an alkene which is major and more stable
so 2-methyl -2-butene is more stable and major product formed in this reaction
The detailed mechanism of this reaction is given below :-
In the final step the product is treated with aqueous Sodium bicarbonate which is a weak base . This is done to ensure no acid is left as side product and final make up is done with this weak base .
So we get a stable and pure alkene as product.

Just Answer Question 5
Synthesis of 2-chloro-2-methylbutane (literature version) Concentrated aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCI, 3.3 equivalents) was slowly added to 2-methyl-2-butanol (1.0 equivalents) in a 100 mL round bottom flask with stirring. The reaction was stirred for 15 minutes at room temperature. Upon completion, the reaction mixture was transferred to a 60 mL separatory funnel and the aqueous layer was removed. The organic layer (i.e. the product) was successively washed with: (1) saturated aqueous NaCl (brine), (2) saturated aqueous NaHCO,...
how do i calculate the number of moles, theoretical yield, and
limiting reagent on the READ ABOUT part? thank you
i need help on READ ABOUT: Calculate the number of moles of
2-methyl-2-butanol and hydrochloric acid (concentrated HCl is 12
M). Based on the balanced equation, determine the limiting reagent
and the theoretical yield of 2-chloride-2-methylbutane.

Experiment Write Up Proposal You will write up a synthesis procedure for one reaction that could be potentially run in a face- to-face Chem 2321 lab session. Your proposal will include an introduction and procedure. The procedure will include step-by-step instructions for running the reaction (including reaction monitoring), work-up. (product isolation and purification), and analysis (characterization). You will need to include sample calculations for percent yield and provide sample spectra analysis. You must upload your proposal as a single document...
What is the SN2 reaction? How does Br attach to which carbon as
a nucleophile and why? Difference between Unimolecular or
Bimolecular? How NaBr and H2SO4 work in the
reaction? Why Water/Sulfuric Acid/Brine/Sodium
Hydroxide/Na2SO4 in Extraction? What does
each layer have inside in each step of the separation?
Please help. Due to corona, this is a theoretical lab and I am
very confused.
