Explain why the following reaction is not feasible as a synthesis of butyl iodide. It w...
for the reaction: acetaminophen + (NaOH/EtOH note: etoh is ethanol) and butyl iodide ---------------> 4-butoxyacetanilide a) The first step in this reaction is to reflux acetaminophen in a NaOH/EtOH solution, followed by the addition of butyl iodide. What is the purpose of using the NaOH/EtOH solution? Would the SN2 reaction still occur if the first step was not completed? Why or why not? b) Upon completion of the reaction (before filtration), an additional 4.0 mL of 1.0 M NaOH/EtOH was...
What nucleophile could be used to react with butyl iodide to prepare the following compound? + butyl iodide rightarrow
A. Explain why an Sn2 reaction between ethyl methyl ether and sodium iodide is not favored but an sn2 reaction between diethyl ether and hydrogen iodide is more favorable. B. Explain why the major product of either reaction is not ethene, even with heating
What nucleophile could be used to react with butyl iodide to prepare the following compound? Nucleophile + butyl iodide →

What nucleophile could be used to react with butyl iodide to prepare the following compound?
why is n- butyl chloride more reactive that ethyl iodide which is more reactive than ethyl bromide?
why we use sodium bromide in the synthesis of butyl bromide from butanol
Explain briefly, why neither an SNI nor SN2 reaction between diethyl ether and sodium iodide is favored but an SN2 reaction between diethyl ether and hydrogen iodide is favorable. 3.
