Question

need help filling obt paper for Acidic Cleavage of Ethers

or maybe where i can find this information easier??

Answer 1

Mechanism Reaction of Acidic cleavage of ether HI CH₂ - 8 - CH₂=CH2 CH₂-8 - CH₂ CH3 CH₂-O-CH₂ - CH₂ H I ctyl + CH₃CHOCH Ethylmethyl ether (Methylicadude) (ethaand) Key point! In 1st step protonation of IC(Hz-I + Cty CH-OH Reaction scheme general ether takes place at o-aton followed R-O-R HI R-It Rooh by the attack of I- nucleoftile where R = smaller alkyl group I is bulkier in size it attacks at R'- targer & smaller alkyl group ie, at- CHz to form Cz. I. This is an example of Nucleophilie substitution reaction.
