Could 2-butoxynaphthalene be obtained if 1-butanol was used as the nucleophile and 2-iodonaphthalene was used as...
Scenario: You are responsible for preparing 2-butoxynaphthalene, a flavouring agent that has a strong raspberry taste. You look up the procedure for the preparation of your target compound and find the following: Sodium hydroxide (0.560 g) is added to a solution of 2-naphthol (0.995 g) in ethanol (14 mL) and the solution is heated to reflux. Once both the sodium hydroxide and the 2-naphthol go into solution, the 1-iodobutane (1.00 mL) is added slowly. After 15 minutes, the reaction mixture...

This is a williamson ether synthesis SN2 reaction. what are
the complete mechanisms of this reaction, with the intermediates
included?
MLNVILI SYNTHESIS OF 2-BUTOXYNAPHTHALENE OH 1. NaOH, ETOH 2. n-BuBr DISCUSSION: Nucleophilic substitution reaction is a frequently used method to convert one functional group into another. A nucleophile is mixed with an electrophile and the nucleophile replaces the leaving group to produce a new compound. In this experiment, a weak nucleophile (2-naphthol) is converted into a strong nucleophile. Then this...
3. Write the mechanism for an S 2 reaction using 1-butanol as your electrophile and HBr as your nucleophile.
I only need help with the PRE-LAB section. I included the
recorded information. Calculate the mass in gram of Sodium
hydroxide (NaOH), 2-naphthol, and 1-bromobutane (n-BuBr).

.Write a chemical equation for 2-bromobutane with silver nitrate in ethanol. Identify the electrophile, nucleophile, precipitate and solvent. Is this a solvolysis reaction? Is the nucleophile strong or weak? Is the solvent polar protic or polar aprotic? What type of substitution reaction is favored under these conditions: SN1 or SN2?
.Write a chemical equation for 1-bromobutane with sodium iodide in acetone. Identify the electrophile, nucleophile, precipitate and solvent. Is this a solvolysis reaction? Is the nucleophile strong or weak? Is the solvent polar protic or polar aprotic? What type of substitution reaction is favored under these conditions: SN1 or SN2?
What nucleophile could be used to react with butyl iodide to prepare the following compound? Nucleophile + butyl iodide →
Why can 95% ethanol be used as a solvent in the synthesis of 2-butoxynaphthalene? I thought that for an Sn2 mechanism only aprotic solvents can be used for the synthesis?
1. Write a chemical equation for 2-bromobutane with silver nitrate in ethanol. Identify the electrophile, nucleophile, precipitate and solvent. 2-bromobutane + CH3CH2OH + AgNO3 → 2. Write a chemical equation for 1-bromobutane with sodium iodide in acetone. Identify the electrophile, nucleophile, precipitate and solvent. 1-bromoburtane + CH3CH2OH + AgNO3 →
