How do you change cyclohexanol to chlorocyclohexane?

Answer 1

Eight mL of concentrated sulfuric acid has been cautiously added to 4 mL of water in 50 mL ground-glass stopper conical flask. The solution has been cooled in an ice bath until cold to the hand. Ten mL of cyclohexene has been added into the solution. The flask has been sealed with a greased ground glass stopper and it has been vigorously shaken for at 15 minutes until there was one homogeneous layer. The reaction mixture has been left for 10 minutes to increase completeness of reaction. The mixture has been poured into a 250-mL round-bottom flask, the previous conical flask has been rinsed with 125ml of water, and the rinsing has been added into the round-bottom flask. The flask has been fitted with a distillation adapter and a condenser set for distillation. The mixture has been heated to hydrolyze the intermediate and to distill the product. The distillate has been collected into a 100 mL conical flask. The distillation has been stopped once the distillate in the condenser was clear, with no oily droplets present and phase is left in the pot. The distillate has been saturate with 10 grams of sodium chloride. The mixture has been left for 15 minutes. The mixture has been transferred into a 250 mL reparatory funnel. The conical flask has been rinsed with 3 mL of diethyl ether for 3 times. All rinsing has been added to the reparatory funnel. The reparatory funnel has been shaken until two distinct layers were seen. The top layer has been transferred into a 100 mL conical flask. The ethereal extract has been dried by added anhydrous potassium carbonate until free flowing. The mixture has been gravity filtrated through fluted filter paper in to a 50 mL round bottom flask. The filtrate has been distilled and the distillate has been collect form as cyclohexanol. The distillation has been stopped when the temperature dropped. The sample and the bottle have been weighted to obtain the number of grams of cyclohexanol produced. The theoretical yield of cyclohexanol and the percent yield have been calculated.
