Question

a. 1. Sketch the reaction coordinate diagram for the solvolysis of t-butyl chloride with water, labeling the maxima and minima with appropriate structures (including the intermediate and transition states). Assume the overall reaction is exothermic. 2. Draw the product of the reaction of t-butyl chloride with each of the following solvents Methanol b. Ethanol c. 2-propanol 3. The Lucas Test and Jones Test (Jones Oxidation) are both chemical test for the presence of alcohols. Please view the videos on the assignment page and determine which if the tests will be positive for the product of the reaction from this experiment and what will be the visual evidence for this positive test.
