85% phosphoric acid for the dehydration of alcohols?
Homework Answers
Concentrated HCl doesn't work for dehydrations in most cases, because it is not thermodynamically favored. Whereas that sulfuric and phosphoric reactexothermically with the water product, driving the reaction to completion.

2. a. Both concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated phosphoric acid are known to catalyze the conversion of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene via dehydration reaction. Concentrated hydrochloric acid, however, is not a viable option. Provide two reasons on what make sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid advantageous over hydrochloric acid. Look up additional information on these acids if needed. b. In preparation of the bromohydrin (trans-2-bromo-1-methylcyclohexanol) with bromine, side products dibromides shown below are often observed. This side reaction can be essentially avoided...

One of the major uses of sulfuric acid is the production of phosphoric acid and calcium sulfate. The reaction is: Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 3H2SO4(aq) → 3CaSO4(s) + 2H3PO4(aq) What mass of concentrated sulfuric acid (98.0 % H2SO4 by mass) must be used to react completely with 155.9 g of Ca3(PO4)2?

What is Zaitsev’s rule? Give the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed E1 reaction of 2-butanol. Give the mechanism for the base-catalyzed E2 reaction of 2-bromobutane. Draw all possible products. You expect three products from the elimination reaction 2-butanol. What are they? The E2 mechanism is a one-step mechanism. True or False? Explain. Which of these two alcohols would you expect to be more reactive under H3PO4/aqueous conditions? Why? Give the structure of the main product in both cases. 1-phenyl-1-propanol 1 -cyclohexyl-1-propanol...
